Our last innocent moment
Julie Ponesse (Author)
"If there can possibly be anything good to come out of the horrors of the last four years, it is this: some of us, at least, have been shaken awake. We now know that we are under attack. We are under attack not so much for the particular things we say or do but simply for wanting to be free, for wanting to be able to think through our lives, and for wanting our lives to be the products of our own choices. Whatever happened over the last few years, we have been fundamentally changed by it. There's no reclaiming the innocence we lost. Life is more serious now. Our obligations are more weighty, or just more apparent. There are certain truths we came to see that can never be unseen. . .. This is a dark time for humanity. But darkness always creates the greatest opportunities for growth and self-awareness, and for us to intentionally remake ourselves for the better. ... We can't reclaim the innocence we lost in 2020, but we can use our experiences to remake a more innocent world for ourselves and for our children."--Page 4 of cover
