I'm just sitting here watching our Prime Minister give his apology to the Stolen Generations, by saying Sorry.
I've waited a long time for this even though I was not affected by the laws.
But I suddenly realised that this is history, and I should write my feelings. We (well, most of us) don't write nearly as much as we used to, so a lot of our feelings and thoughts will never be read by our children's children.
I can read letters my grandmother wrote, but I honestly could not tell you the last letter I wrote that my grand daughter would be able to read and find any of my thoughts or fellings.
I will start to write little snippets about current events from now on.
Just a thought.
