Things of Wonder

Things of wonder

I wonder if people know the Kangaroo and Emu were chosen for the Arms because neither can take a step backwards.

I wonder about the practice of releasing on bail, mentally unstable individuals who have a string of offences. I wonder if that process needs review.

I wonder about the attitude of an individual’s rights being equally applied to all.

I wonder if asylum refugees should be provided opportunity to re-offend the laws and morality of the land that allows them to remain in the land they chose to nurture them.

I am in wonder at the generosity of spirit, inclusiveness and the understanding of #ILLRIDEWITHYOU.

I am in wonder at the depth of openhearted support that flows from true Australians, from every walk of life. 

I wonder too, at the proven professionalism and effectiveness of the authorities we give power to.

I wonder at the bravery of a café manager and of a young barrister who attempt to protect others, at their own ultimate cost.

I am in awe from a distance. 

I am there in my sorrow and respect.
