Manifesto

I wrote the original version of this in 2010 and have evolved it ever so slightly to represent the things that are important to me, and the things I want to live and breathe at home and at work.

It is a responsibility to create a better world

"The land is my mother. Like a human mother, the land gives us protection, enjoyment, and provides our needs - economic, social, and religious. We have a human relationship with the land: mother, daughter, son." – Australian Aboriginal Proverb

Say what you mean, mean what you say

“May as well be here, we are as where we are” – Australian Aboriginal Proverb

The future is diversity

“Our spirituality is a oneness and an interconnectedness with all that lives and breathes, even with all that does not live or breathe” – Mudrooroo

Professional athleticism

"Those who lose Dreaming are lost" – Australian Aboriginal Proverb

Love is for everyone, even at work

"Care for Country and Country will care for you" – Australian Aboriginal Proverb
