On pre-trip jitters.

I always get a little freaked out before any plane trip that, while making all my preps, I am actually whittling away my final earthly moments.

I comfort myself in knowing that these feelings always come up.

And I haven’t died yet.

But, when I find myself texting my kids a last minute pre-boarding photo of mummy blowing them a kiss, the vain side of me cannot help but hope like hell that this is not the last ever photo taken of me.

I acknowledge the Gubbi Gubbi, Wakka Wakka and Butchulla peoples, the First Nation Traditional Owners of Country, and custodians of the land and waters on which I live and work, and all the peoples who have welcomed me on Country. I pay respects to all Elders past and present and acknowledge the young leaders who are working beside Elders in our cultural industries in the continuation of cultural, spiritual and educational practices. I recognise all First Nation peoples as the original storytellers of these lands and acknowledge the important role they continue to play in our community.
