Daughter, my generation is squandering your birthright.

Three weeks old, warm and gently snoring on my shoulder as I write, you are closer to nature than you will ever be again. With your animal needs and animal cries, moved by a slow primordial spirit that will soon be submerged in the cacophony of thought and language, you belong, it seems to me, more to the biosphere than to the human sphere.

True and It's just the beginning of how bad it's going to get. I just bought the book Silent Spring that he mentions.

I fear for the NHS under the current govt, particularly for those living in England. Wales seem to be going down a different path thanks to the assembly now having the power to protect the NHS and of course the Scottish parliament have the power to operate the NHS how they see fit. I don't see the Welsh assembly or Scottish parliament making the same mistakes because it would be career suicide to their political parties.

Lol, he is fiiiine. He is also flaw free as Luther. I'm loving the talk of him being the next Bond.

Ditto. So thoughtful and beautiful.

And this is why I'll have my ashes made into a coral reef mold, in hopes that I'll be some use to this planet and its future inhabitants.
