      • It seems such a long road Theresa and one’s tiny voice echoes in the chasm. Why don’t we hear the other voices? We see the horror in the world and I think it overwhelms us with it’s inevitability sometimes. When you think you’ve seen it all a woman here in Queensland murders her 7 children and her niece. All between 18 months and 15 years, stabs them to death. It seems she was affected by the drug ICE and is presently in hospital after stabbing herself. Incomprehensible.

    • Kath – a nation’s soul bleeds from these horrific moments, and I can think of no better way to bind up the wounds than by ‘getting back to the basic needs of love, family and togetherness.’ Blessings…
