| should what happened in Darwin, stay in Darwin ? |
I thought I'd tell you a little about myself. I'm currently living in Melbourne Australia. I grew up in Adelaide and have been here in Melbourne since I married in 1988.
Other than a trip to Italy when I was 10 I had not really travelled till 1988 when we went on our honey moon.
That began a love of all things new and travel was definitly one of the passions we enjoyed.
I am married to Ron and we have a son named Brandon. He is the
absolute love of my life and makes me laugh so much. He has a wicked sense of humour for one so young.
I never really had that strong maternal feeling that some people rave about. I never really thought that I'd have kids but that all changed when Brandon was born. The feelings that surge up in you are so overwhelming and something that I was not prepared for.
There is nothing in this world that I would not do for my child or no length that I will not go to protect him.
I worry about his future, about the life choices that he will make but in the end I just hope that the love, trust we have in him and sense of what is right and wrong will protect him and lead him only onto the right path in his life.
It does not worry me what he wants to be when he grows up. The main thing is that I hope that whatever career path he chooses, he persues it with a passion and wakes each morning excited at the prospect of another day.
I hope that he forms lasting, strong friendships, that he is not afraid to show compassion and tenderness towards others and that no matter what, He is happy.
My family and my friends are also important to me.
My family are all still in Adelaide so I try to get over as often as I can. My parents migrated to Australia just before I was born. They realised that if we were to have a decent future, they had to leave their village, their family and everything that they knew and come to a country that they knew little about. They were sponsored by my mums sister and her husband and when they had their tickets to board that ship for the long ardourous journey to Australia, they really had no idea of what life would be life for them. They left everything except their 3 kids and a few suitcases which contained remnants of their humble life in Italy.
My parents found whatever work they could get to save to buy us a home. We never went without anything that we wanted. My parents would rather sacrifice their needs to ensure that us kids had everything that we wanted. |

| | A Poem for my friends... You know who you are.. ,I dedicate these lines to you
For all you've said and done,
When my skies were dull and grey
You helped me find the sun.
A cheerful laugh and friendly smile
Work wonders on a day,
When there isn't any sun at all
To chase the clouds away.
When I was feeling down and out
And nothing would go right,
A heavy load I shared with you,
Would then seem twice as light.
You always found the time for me
And had an ear to lend,
And so these words are just to say
I'm proud that you're my friend.%c |
Who am I ? | | |
