I wrote May You Be Safe in lockdown, grounding myself in metta — the practice of offering loving‑kindness to ourselves and to others when the world felt fragile. Sharing it again on Covid Day feels like a quiet way to honour what we carried, what we lost, and the compassion that helped us endure. If the song brings you even a moment of warmth or gentleness, I’m grateful. Be soft with yourself today; we’re still learning how to hold that time, and kindness remains one of the few things that truly steadies us.
