Don't Quit
Post Body

This is a request that came in from someone who has been a very kind listener since my verification audio way back in January. They have asked that I not reveal their name. This amazing individual works for the NHS (National Health Service) in the UKā€¦ they are the best of us and all I can say isā€¦ thank you.

A ā€œthank youā€ has been airing on most of the TV stations in the UK as a tribute to key frontline workers who are heroes in the scary place that the world has become in recent months. It takes the form of a poem read by the actor Idris Elba.

The poem is called Donā€™t Quit by John Greenleaf Whittier (1807 ā€“ 1892) and is in the public domain.

Whilst primarily, this is for my lovely listener who requested it ā€¦ā€¦ its for everyone who is working in our hospitals, care homes, in retailā€¦ as law enforcement, as firefighters, as teachersā€¦. As newly recruited home school teachers who are also doing their day job at homeā€¦ as recently unemployed folk who are not sure what tomorrow bringsā€¦ as recently bereaved folk trying to cope in a time of grief without the closeness of friends and family

Really, its for all of usā€¦

Hope everyone is well,

Bridy xx
