About Me

My photo
Sydney, NSW, Australia
I am a 49 year old Indigenous Woman, proud mother of twin girls Bianca & Brooke hopelessly devoted Nana to Riley, Summer Joy & wife to David.

Koories come in all colours

I know I'm a Koori

I've learned it from my kin
But sometimes I'm questioned
On the colour of my skin.


I'm questioned on this by both
Black and White
My culture and identity are my legal right.


My Aboriginality
I've searched for so long
But the doubts of others
Make it hard to belong.


If you wouldn't make judgments
On just what you see
Then, maybe by chance
You'll see the real me.

There is a saying that sums it up-
" You have to know where you come from -to know where you are going?"

Friday, 13th November 2009

At the moment I am trying to keep myself awake as tomorrow night I begin my cycle of four overnight shifts something I am not looking forward to. I have been listening to some audio books for the most part there have been some really good books but at the moment I am struggling through a Ruth Reddell called The Portobello Road which I finds laborious and without much point. I can not see the sense of writing a story about some guy who is addicted to choc oranges for gods sake how can that go over onto 7 CDs I still don't know what the book is about and what the point is but in my opinion is is boring as hell she should stick to her Inspector Wexford books although I have never read them I love the TV series.
