The first dozen entries were written over 12 years ago. I think they are still pertinent.

Come 2024, other issues about which I will write have come to pass in more recent years.

WE ARE BLESSED – PREAMBLE 2012

We are told blessed to live in Australia, but I suspect we are somewhat profligate with regard to our birthright. Over the next few entries I thought to outline what we might do differently and better. This does not come from an expert, rather from an aging Australian born and raised citizen, whose next ‘major’ birthday centenary will take me to the threescore and ten – getting closer by the year.

Older people see things differently, possibly more reflectively than the young. We have experienced what is yet to unfold for them, albeit in a different world. The constant is that we all have youth and then grow older. 

I worry about this country  and will share some thoughts.
