“Whosoever saves a life…” what an extraordinary thought. And to be the recipient of such kindness, to have someone else save your life, is an extraordinary privilege. I can hardly fathom it.
Isn't it extraordinary? Helps contextualise and add weight to our individual responsibility I think. And I bet, it must feel almost unfathomable to you.
Oh Ali, I only recently heard about Scott and started listening to his music having read Michael Pedersen's book Boy Friends.... Scott sounded like the most incredible sparkly soul and those memories of your Aunt so precious. There is always a hole, no matter what mends and fixes we try to make. Your words as always are such a refreshing tonic and the questions you pose about reckoning with yourself as an artist provide me with such food for thought. Thank you. Sending you so much love and thinking of you xxx

Gah! Missing the Bible, and the gilt edges… that got to me. I’m so glad to be rid of it (JW-ness) and gut ridden by the loss too.
