when perspective comes

it is now almost 2 months of 'inaction' in my life.
2 months of 'house arrest'.
2 months of 'distance management'
2 months away from 'the people'.

- the nerves are slowly fraying
- the muscles are itching
- the mind is straining at the leash

and perspective happens - i read about aung san suu kyi and her efforts in myanmar's recent turmoil.

Aung San Suu Kyi – under house arrest for 12 of the last 18 years – met for a little more than an hour with a Myanmar junta official

- no recourse to freedom
- no recourse to family
- no recourse to law

but the fight should not and has not waned, has not paused.

ah - when perspective comes...
