15.05.2022 We always seem to hear about the Aboriginal stolen generations but never "The white stolen generations, which was much larger than the Aboriginal babies taken... from their mothers. Did you know that in Australia there is another stolen generation, one which shares the pain and consequences? It’s called the white stolen generation to distinguish it from the Aboriginal stolen generation. In the five decades up to 1982, the newborn babies of young, single women were forcibly removed from them for adoption, a practice sometimes called ‘baby farming’. Mothers were drugged, tethered to beds, not allowed to see their babies, told they were dead. Many of these adoptions occurred after the mothers were sent away by their families due to the stigma associated with being pregnant and unmarried. More than 250,000 white mothers lost their babies to forcible removal at birth by these past illegal adoption practices. Groups such as Adoption Loss Adult Support and Apology Alliance offer help and support. Between 2010 and 2012 apologies were offered by Western Australia, South Australia, ACT, New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania. Prime Minister Julia Gillard offered a national apology to those affected by forced adoptions in 2013.

18.04.2022 TO REACH PERFECTION If you're trying to reach perfection, be prepared to try forever. Perfection isn’t a place, or a destination, or a goal. That’s a myth.... That doesn’t exist. You’re on a long road to nowhere. And yet, perfection does occur. It occurs every day in fact... It’s in the moments, the minutiae, the everyday. It’s that feeling when your beloved snuggles in and two souls become one. It’s the love in a fleeting look that says, ‘I got you’. It’s the table filled with food, family, friends and laughter. It’s the achievement of another battle fought and survived. It’s the smiling eyes that look like your own and those who went before you. It’s the knowledge that you can, no matter what. It’s a safe roof over your head on a stormy night. There is no such thing as a perfect life my friend, there are only perfect moments in every day. The real worry, is a life spent chasing perfection when actually, it’s passing you by. In all the little moments, right here, right now. Donna Ashworth From ‘the right words’
