“If every tiny flower wanted to be a rose, spring would lose its loveliness.” – Therese of Lisieux.

There's a lot not to be happy about in the world at the moment, so I'll keep it brief. 

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disillusioned with the outcome of the referendum, and I have been looking for ways to help push for change on closing the gap, in particularly on health outcomes for Indigenous communities. Given so few electorates voted in a yes majority, I can't help but question if I somehow got it wrong? Or do I hold tight onto the title quote and know in my world, it was still the right thing to do. 

The pending summer seems to have snapped back to midwinter. It's almost impossible to choose the right clothes in the morning each day.

I am doing 7 Bridges walk to fund raise for cancer on Sunday. So no doubt that will be a million degrees or a downpour - or both.

I just saw the very excellent and hilariously clever Dimanche last night. If you can still get tickets, it's worth checking out. It's rather depressing portrayal of Climate Crises however, has left me thinking uncomfortably about this weird cold snap after the heat wave last week.

Roses bloom in the Spring on my dog walk and I gain much instant happiness from literally stopping and smelling these truly pungent blooms.

“Getting lost in the ‘big picture’ often prevents us from cherishing the 'small moments' that make it all worthwhile...”
