WYSIWYG
What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.

This week sees the turn of the second anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine by Russia. When I discovered that access to this video of Aleksandr playing the national anthem was restricted to YT only, I nearly chose another video... but I feel it is important to have you watch him play this while sitting in a bomb-torn street in 2022. The battle still rages... So please take the time to honour the war-affected in your hearts as you click the image to link through to the performance. Thank you.
