In a world that has felt crazy and out of control for a while now, it is a true delight to know that there are women in the world like the radiant Viola Davis and the incomparable Meryl Streep. Their words from this year’s Golden Globe Awards are both touching and eloquent. Faced with the reality into which we are all about to be plunged, Meryl Streep’s words resonate profoundly. They bear listening to and repeating again and again.

A beautifully stated reason by Shawn MacKenzie to view Viola Davis intro to Meryl Streep and the speech Meryl made after receiving the Cecil B. DeMille Lifetime Achievement at the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday 8th Jan 2017. The words coming from Meryl’s strained voice awakened the world & a certain late night Tweeter I prefer not to mention by name. Find out from Meryl

Your link no longer leads anywhere. I’m afraid. However, Meryl’s speech can still be found on line by those who wish to do so, and thank you for posting it. Her words carry great value.

COMPASSION
Poor rich Donald
Had a heart once too
But has not yet
Found the courage
To admit it is broken
And embark upon
The painful journey
Required to mend it
