Before yesterday I don't think I understand the power of the word.
"Sorry"
Australia is such a better place for it.
We have so much to do, to make the actions that need to accompany the word, to happen and to work.
After listening to the radio much of yesterday, at my desk, driving to meetings, eyes moist, I start to believe that it can happen and can work... though my head urges caution still.
During the election campaign, our previous PM warned us that when we change the government, we change the country.
Well we did and we have,
Thank whatever higher power you wish!*
I rarely think good of pollies, especially from the major parties, but I'm thinking good of our new PM... it's freakin' me out a bit, to be honest, but it makes a nice change.
*I'm thanking: Flying Spaghetti Monster

It was indeed a momentous occasion and your post pays tribute to it in such a moving way
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment. I've just noticed that the tenses are mixed in my first sentence, but I think I might leave it be, it's sort of cute.
ReplyDeleteYour post on the subject is v.good too.
Glad to know someone I don't know is reading Boarking!
