A rare privilege

I had the rare privilege to be a part of something very special with a group of very special people with the Aboriginal Leadership Program from the Department of Corrective Services in Western Australia.

I met some amazing leaders.

I am personally in awe of where people have come from and where they are going.

I want to be a part of their journey. Who knows where it may take them, but the change is now inevitable, there is no turning back. Others will recognise the change in them. This group will stand tall and proud of who they are walking quietly and showing others the way.

This group will lead people to great things. As yet I don't know what great things they will pass on. It could be something so small as to sow the seed of possibility with just a caring smile; a hand of love on a child's shoulder or showing someone that there is a better life for those that they come into contact with.

They may never even see the positive trail they leave in their wake, but I do know one thing.
They are prepared to share and show a better way for all.
