Too Much

Ariana Grande will pay for the funerals of the twenty-two bombing victims. A millionaire will house the homeless man who pulled nails from children’s faces after the attack. So many people turned up to give blood in Manchester that they had to be turned away. The taxi drivers switched off their meters, the hotels became shelters.

Feeling helpless, I filled two bags of clothes and toys, we have too many. If we have too much, and most of us do, then we should give some away. Blood, smiles, kind words, we can give them too.
