Hi Fiona, Social Media is now my full time job as it takes up so much time trying to find former contacts...

1. History is not there for you to like or dislike.
2. History is there for you to learn from it.
3. History offends you? Even better. Then you are less likely to repeat it.

Read this out loud, then read it again. Then teach it to your children and grandchildren.

Saying my ‘tank is empty’ doesn’t necessarily mean weakness or lack of resilience or mental illness. It may simply mean a decision to look after oneself & give more time & energy to being with loved ones. That dramatisation is part of the problem, you know. It can prevent people making healthy changes to their lives. As soon as u simply say I’v got too much on & need to take a break it’s pathologised & seen as a total breakdown & you get dramatic reactions. We should normalise it.

I am reading a stranger’s account of my home town, Melbourne, and seeing what I am blinded to by familiarity. Therein lies the value of neophytes. They have eyes we don’t have. It is absolutely possible to learn about your own culture through the eyes of an outsider.

Bak kut teh ( sorry about the spelling )

The destruction of a building can be purposeful (of a society’s own choosing), retaliatory (such as an act of war) or accidental (think electrical fault). Has news of a building’s destruction ever broken your heart?

The wilful and systematic demolition of historic if unremarkable parts of places always for developers profits like in Hong Kong amongst others....
