Day 297 – Australia Day.


Trinity Beach Qld Australia
  Today the sunshine came out to play on our national day of celebration.  Most people get a day off on Monday, so it is full on party mode for some.  Aren’t we lucky we can do that?  We don’t have to worry about legally having only one child.  Get jailed for 7 years; having a book opposing a government.  Sold to slavery by our families.  To sex trade, to keep other family members existing.  Live in a refugee camp since birth and now 18 + because of all sorts of reasons.  Yes, aren’t we lucky?  Our country is far from perfect, but we are fortunate to have a lot of things here.  But we have a long way to go.  Remember a lot of nationalities came together to form what we have today.  Celebrate we have the freedom to party, have free choices, and lets work together so others can have the same freedoms.  Happy Australia Day!
