The thing about grief is that you eventually return to ‘normal life,’ but still feel so far from your ‘normal self.’
It’s a terrible feeling. Wanting to be present and enjoy the moment, yet feeling unable to.

This is the playbook, folks.
If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.
Do not be quiet in this moment.

Korean networks and dailies have noted that families and friends who greeted the returning workers remarked that they had lost a lot of weight and seemed to have aged.
The workers were worried most about a pregnant woman who was detained with them. She got a first class seat on the flight home.
