Bringing our Heart into a Bill of Human Rights and Responsibilities

Nobody is going to be more interested in who you are than you. Shining your love for life and people is infectious. The more love you feel for your Self, the more you have to give. Taking the time to listen to and nurture your good Self comes at no cost, and yet brings you the full measure of your worth. And those close connections we all dream of.

Hopes, dreams and the reality of this moment come to life - with the power of our imagination - when we dare to steer our gaze deep into the eyes of our Soul. It is here we retrieve our true identity. It is here we meet who we have sensed all this time.

Words can be powerful but it is our actions that speak louder than our words. When we change how we listen, we sense a deeper underlying intelligence moving through us. It is an inner knowing we intuitively recognise, and it is what we are here to learn to respond to, as opposed to the conditioning of the only life we have ever learnt to accept as true.

Change. We cannot do it alone. We need those acts of love and adversity and awful feelings of injustice, so we learn how to face our fears and grow what needs to be grown, out of love, to ensure our wellbeing. And our sense of belonging.

It takes presence … the awareness of self-awareness to face challenges, so that freedom of choice and freedom of expression come from an open heart. With respect for our good Self we can proudly walk our path as a clear-minded, independent thinking individual who is intimately connected with life. 🐝

Receiving a Full Education - Grounded in Responsibility

Standing up for our human rights is a shared responsibility built on the solid foundations of knowing what we all deserve.

What we want for our Self we should always want for others, without exception. It is a fundamental principle of natural law.

Being interested in who we are as an individual and as part of a much bigger society is an exploration into the depth of our emotional intelligence to discover what makes us tick .

Without the practice in knowing how to be the full measure of our worth the rule of law will remain a construct in theory.

No where in the Australian Constitution is there a place, a space or a voice that teaches, guides and supports Human connection and the depth of its meaning for a balanced Mind and sustained wellbeing.

Having the skills to know how to nurture a sense of identity to feel our belonging is our natural right and deserves to be embedded into any Constitution as a way of preserving this right. Every child deserves to feel their own love and self-worth.

Legally enshrining Guiding Principles for Responsible Living at the beginning of a Bill of Human Rights and Responsibilities will ensure we are, as a whole society, receiving a full education grounded in emotional intelligence and human connection.

It takes bold courage to be the change. When we understand our Mind, we have the power to shift the paradigm of our current systems of governing to reflect our deeper intelligence and good nature.

With an education built around a sense of identity, grounded in emotional intelligence, we can learn to live as one peoples free from discrimination, segregation, deprivation and gross violations of our most essential human rights. And with that, we can redefine our laws, and strengthen the mechanisms that create the foundations of International Law.

The opportunity to practice every part of our interconnectedness with unequivocal, shared, inclusive and freely available Guiding Principles for Responsible Living will guarantee the rights and freedoms we all deserve.
