Derek Caelin is writing a book
In response to this postI spent much of my early career thinking about peacebuilding. But in this book, I can only reference in a few paragraphs what I spent years trying to learn about nonviolent civil resistance.
It makes sense. It's a book about Tolkien and trees, not arguments on the impact and efficacy of nonviolence.
It just feels like I'm exercising a ghost limb.
What a line from Tolkien. I actually teared up a little in reading it. I think about the things we lose daily.
"Well, cheers and all that to you dearest son. We were born in a dark age out of due time (for us). But there is this comfort: otherwise we should not know, or so much love, what we do love. I imagine the fish out of water is the only fish to have an inkling of water."
