Session 3 reflective reading
- 1. Session 3 April 7th 2016 Reflective Reading Human beings suffer, They torture one another, They get hurt and get hard History says, Don’t hope On this side of the grave. But then, once in a lifetime The longed-for tidal wave Of justice can rise up, And hope and history rhyme. So hope for a great sea-change On the far side of revenge. Believe that further shore Is reachable from here. Believe in miracles And cures and healing wells. Seamus Heaney From ‘The Cure at Troy’
