Who doesn’t love a good rural romance set in a picture-perfect Australian country town? We know there will be sublime scenery, colourful characters and hopefully a ‘happy ever after’ for our leading lady and country gentleman. Yet we know the path of […]
Australian movies always superbly shine a light on we Antipodean folk and our highly unique quirks and mannerisms. And Australian comedy movies amplify our nuanced behaviours a million times more. Exhibiting a microcosm of lives which we Australians live to the best […]
If the torrentially traumatic, highly fraught and heartbreakingly gut-wrenching events and permutations of the Second World War had never taken place, and the Second World War had been a story that was entirely ‘made up’, it would be seen to be too […]
Is there anyone who is veritably beyond God’s redeeming love and help? In human terms, are there folk who cannot be (hopefully unconditionally) loved and helped? Why has it occurred in the past and does it occur now, in a land of […]
During uncertain and tumultuous times, throughout the centuries, wise and frequently world-weary humans have pondered the meaning of life. The timelessly sage and eternally reverberating words of renowned English playwright and poet, William Shakespeare (1564 – 1616), speak as much to us […]
Is it possible for a man who is dead to be a suspect in a murder case? If there is DNA found at a crime scene of the aforementioned person, is it a slam-dunk fact that the supposedly deceased is in fact […]
Romantic love, experienced by most people at one time or another in differing iterations, is at-times illusory in nature. This love is capable of summit-attaining highs and depth-inducing despair. As Irish novelist and poet, James Stephens (1880 – 1950) said of romantic […]
In life’s seemingly random lottery, some folk appear to be almost giddy with the good fortune bestowed on them. Others appear to perpetually find themselves in a bogged down quagmire of misfortune and mistakes. True happiness and ‘golden days’ just out of […]
One of a plethora of conundrums facing all devoted and conscientious parents throughout Australia (if they have the financial means) is the decades-old debate of whether to send their children to a public or private school. Fees for the luxury of a […]
The eternally profound and classy playwright, William Shakespeare (1564 – 1616) wrote, in the ethereally noble and cautionary tale of “Hamlet”, cuttingly of ambition as a character trait. He tells us that “The very substance of the ambitious is merely the shadow […]
Human relationships are, at-times, the most complicated and non-transparent of beasts. Abuse, manipulation and even betrayal may occur. Other times, the fine webs of human connections encapsulate the noblest of interactions, and are full of unending decency, loyalty, love and kindness. Family […]
Alarmingly and frighteningly, around 630 000 people go missing every year in America. Of that sobering figure, most are located. Despairingly and heartbreakingly, some 90 000 of that number are never found. (In Australia annually, some 38 000 people are reported to […]
The beautiful and timeless existence of love can surely never be doubted. Even a mere slither of love can cast undiluted and dazzling light onto an otherwise murkily dreary day. Further, romantic love illuminates millions of lives throughout the world every day. […]
Australian country towns are, going on initial appearances, a frontier embodiment, and time capsule of, deeply embedded old-fashioned customs, values and relationships…….or are they? There are some Australian country towns that exist as a veritable mirage of their ‘glory days’. Days long […]
There are undeniably millions of folk in the workforce, around the globe, who are firmly entrenched in jobs they are miserably unhappy in. The spectrum of job dissatisfaction can range from disliking, but being stoically tolerant of the workplace in which one […]
How well do you really know your parents? Undoubtedly they lived a (hopefully) full, exuberant and even perhaps remorselessly audacious life before you were even a thought in their mind. Would you want to know the all-encompassing details and vagaries of the […]
Mental health is for some a dangerously slippery slope. Where an avalanche of psychological ‘nasties’ invade one’s life when they are least wanted (‘nasties’ including severe depression, anxiety and panic attacks and general but engulfing sadness). Often the mentally ill have little […]
Undeniably, this world is not the veritable utopia we would all (or most) would like it to be. Without doubt, there are subtle (as well as seismically major) forms of corruption in even the seemingly respectable and incorruptible echelons of society. This […]
Our legal system (here in Australia, but also in other developed countries, such as America), is, in its noblest iteration, a force for good and justice for all. It is a necessary judicature that we, who pride ourselves on being civilised and […]
There are a myriad of reasons why the seemingly overtly joyful (and sometimes frivolous) season of Christmas is paradoxically a time of acute suffering for many. Even deeply distressing for a number of people. There exists in our society insidious, yet highly […]
