I adore it: the Basho and other Japanese haiku artists' wood cuts on the border, the insight into Australia and its unique assemblage of people. Thank God your aborigines are somewhat surviving, whereas we in the United States mercilessly eliminated our indigenous people. Love the truck! i like the water symbol of the Rainbow Serpent. I think of water as a symbol for the Divine Feminine (fluidity, fecundity), so they merge for me.

How fascinating! The statistic about aboriginal women's education and the improved life of children is not surprising, merely common sense. I'm sure it's true in subsistence economies all over the world. The question is, why isn't feeding and educating people all over the world more important that war?Merihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07024443046207501650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155836879539082676.post-23489842566750030182009-05-16T23:48:00.000+10:002009-05-16T23:48:00.000+10:00Great informative post Delwyn - what a fantastic i...Great informative post Delwyn - what a fantastic idea!
