Now is the time to build structures that can withstand the storms of tomorrow. Now is the time to extend and consolidate our connections. Our respective circumstances will continue to deteriorate, but tipping points of all kinds will create opportunities for change that we can turn to our advantage, provided we are ready. Every step we take, every obstacle we overcome, brings us a little closer to significant victories … victories that can offer some comfort to the souls of those we have lost in battle, who are waiting to rest in peace.
We are aware of the magnitude of the task. We are learning from the failures of our elders. We know the many threats we face. The odds are not in our favour. Perhaps we will not turn the tide, become that tsunami.
But as a Catalan friend once said: there are times when not to take risks is a risk not worth taking.
