Hi Everyone

Well I finally got my submission done and downloaded online gee nothing to do with the gov is easy is it? Well not for a dummy like me anyway.

I feel good that that is done and I took the time to have my say. I would like to share a little poem that I wrote over a while now but here it is

OH YES WEVE ALL BEEN SHAFTED
AND OUR RIGHTS THEYVE STRIPPED AWAY
BUT DID YOU STAND UP STRONGLY
AND DID YOU HAVE YOUR SAY

OR DID YOU STAY THERE MILDLY
IN YOUR HAPPY COMFORT ZONE
WHILE THE POLLIES AND THEIR MINDERS
ROBBED YOU OF YOUR HOME

NOW MY FRIENDS THE TIME IS COMMING
WHEN YOU MUST STAND AND FIGHT
FOR JUSTIC AND FOR FREEDOM
AND ALL WE KNOW IS RIGHT

OUR FAMILYS MAY NOT THANK US
AND SOME WILL SAY WERE MAD
BUT OUR CAUSE IS TOO IMPORTANT
AND TO LOOSE WOULD BE TOO BAD

What do you think? Too much?

Certainly NOT too much - and as you said - you feel better for having done submission.. and having done it you've learnt some more and become a more formidable activist... "from little things...."
