ON TRACK...

And this grand news proves that there is far more to the number '1' than the stereotypical concepts of 'first' and 'One is the loneliest number...'. This very special '1', we Melburnians hope symbolises 'last'. This '1' is the key to opening the door AWAY from loneliness...😀🙏😀 https://t.co/ct9zHspvdl pic.twitter.com/WbkKl2ei3m

addicted to learning and soul connections...

Addicted to learning and soul connections... I live and breathe for both... But also must include the sheer pleasure I get from supporting high school students - both in their learning + mental/spiritual wellbeing...The students give my life purpose and meaning...

a chat with Emily D?...

While not strictly labelled 'philosopher', it can't be denied that Emily Dickenson's poetry has a strong undercurrent of philosophy. So I would choose Emily Dickenson. I can imagine she would be a little reticent, but, as I am a little socially shy too, I think we could connect.

indigenous farming...

This is simply amazing...The incredible possibility of perennial crops... saving the loss of topsoil. Kangaroo grass has massive root systems to hold the soil and draw up water. Even in dry areas, seasonal rain is enough. The advantages are endless. Consider indigenous farming. https://t.co/M3IgPz6h0E

lawsuits...

Very sad to see the barrage of lawsuits claiming 'business poor', yet ignoring the overseas evidence of what happens in pandemic times when businesses given 'thumbs up' too swiftly. The law's not fashioned to acknowledge the extreme conditions of a pandemic. The law doesn't fit.
