As a sideways contribution to the discussion, this is from my Barrelblog a few years ago, grappling with the particular challenges of writing 'about' racism from inside experiences of Whiteness (as opposed to affecting some kind of impossible positional neutrality) barrelblog.org/2021/11/25/w...

Dormant is it. I do miss the chat.

What is a Gloriously Ordinary Life — Gloriously Ordinary Lives Gloriously Ordinary Lives are about getting both the mundane and the heart sing. Life isn’t just made up of amazing times and it would be odd if it was.

People keep asking about Gloriously Ordinary Lives in accessible formats, so I recorded a garden video explaining it all!

Perfect when someone asks "What is this Gloriously Ordinary Lives thing that you keep banging on about?!"

Hope it's useful ⬇️

Can imagine that would have been a fantastic evening 😊

Beautiful!
