I wanted to let you know that these reflections, shared during the past few days, were written in 2013 – eleven years ago.
When reviewing them recently and before publication, it seemed they were still relevant, possibly more pertinent, or deeply embedded than in 2013.
With the passing of the last decade, I feel other concerns have joined these observations. From time to time, and over the next few weeks, I will add to the list.
Thank you for reading my blog entries and the comments offered from time to time.
EDUCATION, A LIFE FORCE 
I thank you and invite you not to worry, but to keep alive the hope of a better world, if you never give up.
I have not given up, but metaphorically, Australia seems like a drowning person who has bobbed up twice and looks set to be about to go down for the third and final time.
Do not lose hope.
