It seems strange to be reflecting back on life, it is not as though I have come to the end, but a fork in the highway of life and having to change directions is a good place to take a short pause an look back on the path followed.
All those year ago, growing up in Parkes, going to school in Forbes, I would not have thought I would be where I am - thought at this point in time, I am not sure I know where point actually is (just a tad disoritentated at the moment).
Having had the worst (and reflecting on the 28 years since these 6 years ended) 6 years of my life in high school, with every day bring fear and dread as to what would happen to me at school, nothing that life has thrown at mehas been as bad as the six years of secondary school - well may some say RBCC stands for Red Bend Catholic College but for me it really did stand for Rotten Bloody Concentration Camp - and I still ahve the physical and mental scars from it.
I never thought I would at 46 sit here wonder whre I am heading, who I am, what is my purpose. I never thought life would be so difficult - and yes, unfair - that some have it easy and some have to fight and struggle for everything.
But a new start - i ahve deleted all my stuff from my blog that I used for teaching, and now I am going to purge the soul by, as best Ican, writing my memories of the past 46 years..........
