A different perspective on Harry and Meghan.

Whatever we may think of the choices they have made, is there still room to acknowledge how they felt and what they experienced?

Speaking out isn’t always an attack. Sometimes it’s an attempt to be heard.

Traditions matter, but so does the ability to listen, adapt and recognise when old ways may need to change.

Perhaps we don’t always have to choose a side. Sometimes we can simply make room for another person’s truth.

[A.M. Hartley @AMHartley11576]

Sometimes speaking out is not an act of war against an institution. Sometimes it is simply a plea to be heard. Perhaps Harry and Meghan were trying, in their own modern way, to say that they were struggling and that their experiences and feelings mattered too. Traditions have value, but there also has to be room to listen and acknowledge that people experience things differently. That doesn’t mean taking sides or agreeing with everything they have done. It simply means allowing people to speak about what they went through without condemning them simply for speaking at all.

@95wristLaird @piersmorgan What an awful thing to say about people who have lost their lives. Whatever your views on immigration or politics, these were human beings. A little compassion costs nothing.

@Avabelly__ Would you feel different if it was at the beach? I think he is covered decently enough where it matters.

@one54africa @ginayashere This was such a captivating interview throughout. Love her spirit.

A migrant often spends a lifetime answering a question they never asked: "Where do I belong?"
Perhaps the real answer is this: we belong wherever we can be fully ourselves without having to leave parts of our story behind.

@one54africa I can relate to this 100%. The migrant experience and questions of identity really affect us. I've written a series of reflections exploring belonging, culture, and finding your place between worlds. feel free to take a look

I find it shocking how little human life sometimes seems to matter.
Behind every headline are real people, real loss.

Collateral Damage reflects on the human cost when power is misused.

We talk about the economic impact of war.

Not enough about the human cost — the collateral damage carried by ordinary people.

I explore this idea in my book Collateral Damage.https://t.co/rEypblaVaH

@jehniiee Hi

[A.M. Hartley @AMHartley11576]

A public letter circulating today made an important point about “collateral damage.”
Behind that phrase are real lives affected by decisions made far from where the consequences fall.
This tension is exactly what my book explores.

Quiet Seasons Still Count
Progress isn’t always visible.
Preparation often happens in silence.
Trust the season you’re in.

Self-care is not retreat. It’s how responsibility becomes sustainable.

We all learn our roles.
But behind every role
is a self that didn’t disappear.

Even the most defined roles
carry unexpected selves.
