Musings

My best buddy T said to me, "Hey, Princess, if you had stuck to what you were doing all those years ago, we would have been calling you YB by now".

She has a point. A Minister and an ex-Minister are my contemporaries. At least 5 MPs from the Opposition are friends, seniors, colleagues. Senior Opposition MPs know me on a first-name basis.

But I am tired. Jaded. Worn-out. I had done my fair share of demonstrating, shouting, writing, signing....the fire is still there but has become a flame now. I just want to sleep. What a strange woman I am. I used to be inspired by Robert Frost. Now all I want is to sleep.

Maybe one day I'll rediscover that fire in me.
