heliopausaThere are at least three real, serious things I should be doing, besides playing on the internet (and that doesn't count the NFE, which still stretches out like the Uncrossable Swamp).
But I couldn't not share this story of awesome courage and just keeping going, from India.
And while I'm about it, this latest update in the long story of Irom Sharmila Chanu, whose courage and determination in fighting something much crueller and more powerful than a leopard moves me very greatly indeed.
(Oh, and I've just seen this, too, for more about the legislative "leopard" that Irom Sharmila Chanu is fighting. She is the one using her own body to fight, but others are using their voices. More power to them!)
