Lockdown Update Day 124

[elisi]

We have 3 jobs on this planet:

1) To enjoy the exquisite beauty here

2) To love big & bravely

3) To care for one another & fight for justice & equity for everyone.

We have much to do on #3 now. But don’t neglect #1 and #2. You need them. AND they offer fuel for the fight.

And I, um, posted fic. Another crossover - much shorter, although there will be more:

Meet the Neighbours
Summary: Missy and the Doctor move to the South Downs. Aziraphale and Crowley are their neighbours. That's it, that's the set-up.

Finally, today's art. English sculptor Barbara Hepworth, 'Stringed Figure (Curlew), Version II' 1956.


Which reminded me that I have been waiting to share this article for absolutely ages:

Letters reveal postnatal crisis of Barbara Hepworth
Previously unpublished correspondence sheds new light on artist’s struggle to pursue career while caring for triplets alone.

I knew she was married and had children, but somehow I never realised that she had triplets!!

Isn't it just? Hepworth was incredible.
