Stories of Hope

I'm a terrible gardener and am in awe of farmers who can grow things like olives and grapes. We are all gifted with certain skills and opportunities, but being too proud or too humble can spoil the gift.  King Herod was too proud and ended up being worm food before his time.

Stories of Hope

Few of us will leave a legacy like Walt Disney, but we all leave a legacy in some way. How we treat people and the way we make them feel leaves a mark on their personality and psyche, especially those we are closest to. If we design an amazing thing, it will probably be forgotten in a generation or so, but sowing love, lasts through the ages.

Stories of Hope

Vincent Lingiari led a seemingly insignificant strike in 1966 that was a stepping stone to Mabo, the High Court's Native Title decision in 1992.     If we let injustice slide by unchecked because if doesn't affect us - we set ourselves up to encounter the same injustice when we are in need ourselves. How we treat the most vulnerable in our society sets the standard for us all and often it is a small step that gets things going.
