Δαφνη Ευτυχια Αρθουρος

"Was playing tug with my dog today and after a while I stopped because my arms were literally aching from it.

"And I started thinking - maybe that's partly why I've felt so exhausted the last few years....

"On top of Covid and it's impact on all of us, I feel like I'm in a constant tug of war.

"I'm struggling to hold on to my faith and my church, so they aren't pulled away by bigots and homophobes.

"I'm struggling to hold on to my country, it's democratic freedoms and public institutions so they aren't pulled away by right wing populists.

"It's exhausting being in a continual tug of war. But I cannot...will not...let go."
