…Hope

Posted on the 23 May 2017 by Zer @the2women

It’s one of those days where we could all use a little more light and hope. Our thoughts and prayers at the 2WC go out to all those impacted by yesterday’s attack in Manchester.

While the horror of yesterday’s act of cowardice has been and will continue to be replayed, we could all use a reminder of the good that humanity is capable of. Moments like this are defined not by those who commit an act of terror, but by how the impacted community responds. Manchester has demonstrated the strength and love of their community.

To balance out the fear and ignorance behind attacks like these, here’s a few reminders of the good people who stepped up.
