Beautiful that you keep on sharing the love.<br />Judy, Whatever is going on at an individual content level for each of them has the same root cause, "the not good enough yet" stuff sourced in fear and played out in attack and defend and blame. How tiring! And yes, we can each BE who we are, and remember that each of us is the same...perfect love.Lorna Pattenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17565462583431193055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5471715692077506801.post-29031486256614185422012-10-24T03:43:56.754+11:002012-10-24T03:43:56.754+11:00Lorna how refreshing it is to hear truth-good on y...Lorna how refreshing it is to hear truth-good on you!<br />What is it really all about when the layers are peeled back on Julia Gillard"s blame & attack & visa versa, Tony Abbott"s ? Certainly this is not just our usual political rhetoric playing out in public, it is more akin to an exaggerated lovers quarrel! (mmm...) Perhaps the purpose of this unkind behaviour playing out publicly is to remind us that we are capable of creating something far better as individuals. If each of us committed to being present for one another with empathy & love.

Pees me off that I used to get ridiculed as being 'touchy feely' by some of my male colleagues - now they're all getting it. Bless them. I'm forwarding this on to my local Federal and State politicians. <br />Love your work.

There are very few people who would not agree with this insightful blog. I guess the problem lies in the level of consciousness of the average Australian and in a perfectly functioning democracy, you get what your collective level of consciousness deserves. But I agree with you that there is an extra spike in spite over the past few years that doesn't seem to be out there in voter land...just inside the Parliament. Tony Abbott is supposed to be a strong Christian and embody Christian values. I just don't see that. His macho swagger belies an aggressive inner side that does not belong in the highest institution in the land. Julia Gillard on the other hand seems to have given her power away to the old union bosses and the old 'groupers' who circle her in the ALP and call a lot of the shots. When she goes out on her own and speaks her mind rather than what had been put in front of her by the Shoppies union boss, she seems much more natural. But maybe the old Westminster System has started to get close to its use-by date as well. Its an adversarial system like the courts and maybe there's a better way. In terms of governance, I'd like to see us get rid of the anachronistic state governments and have one central federal government and a number of regional governments that are purely there to make sure the garbage is collected and the street lights work. None of this moral claptrap that State governments put out in the name of states rights. <br />But as you say, there is a core issue here that needs to be changed and we need people to say it over and over again. In this respect, made the Gillard/Abbott brawling will have a positive effect.

An alternative voice well worth supporting for their social policies and human stand on many issues. We can change this toxic situation if choose to be who we are and stop the fear!<br />Love lornaxxLorna Pattenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17565462583431193055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5471715692077506801.post-51049926354599668182012-10-23T12:51:08.340+11:002012-10-23T12:51:08.340+11:00I will also add that through their behaviour we ca...I will also add that through their behaviour we can see our politicians selfish self centred and self serving choices and they have, therefore, forfeited their right to be our leaders. I personally had such high hopes that a female leader would bring us something different. Oh well. Perhaps we should elect a human instead.

Of course, this too is perfect. Perhaps the goodness out of all this is that they will collapse in on themselves and leave a vacuum for more humane politicians to shine through. Like you said, the only people interested in this current political climate are politicians and those that report on politicians. The rest of us are just switching off. Time to support some younger or non-careerer politicians and see what they can do instead. Sack the lot of them. lets try something different. The change would be wonderful. Love ya work Lorna. Always on topic.
