#FlashbackFriday - Black Saturday Bushfires.

Back in 2009, Victoria suffered one of the most significant bushfires it had seen to date...I signed up to volunteer at a donation centre in Wallen...there is always that one interaction that sticks with you. For me, it was a mum who had come in with her toddler.
...
This woman...pulled me into an embrace and cried softly into my shoulder so that her child could not hear her.
...
We do not need to know someone to help them. We do not need to experience their trauma to sympathise with them. We do not need to understand them to be there for them. We do not need to have anything in order to give.
...
When we start seeing what the community can do for us and stop seeing what we can offer to our community, the community loses something special. We all have the ability to make our world a little better for our community. Will you share your time, your heart, your smile with your community?

*The photo below was the certificate sent to me by the Mayor of Whittlesea. I didn't know I was getting it, nor did I expect to receive it and though I am grateful for the recognition, I am more thankful that I was given the opportunity to help others and feel like I was really doing something that mattered to the community.

Wij zijn kwaad! Het vroeger sluiten van de ramen straks op de #Wallen is niet nodig om overlast te verminderen voor buurtbewoners (waar sommigen van ons ook onder vallen) maar heeft wel degelijk heftige gevolgen voor sekswerkers - ook voor hun veiligheid.

"Het stigma op sekswerk resulteert in beslissingen die in strijd zijn met de belangen van de sekswerkers zelf... Raambordelen geven ons macht, het sluiten van de gordijnen maakt ons kwetsbaar.”

Dus @AmsterdamNL heft nu bij ons reclamebelasting op hun eigen campagneposter die is bedoeld om overlast op de #Wallen te verminderen. Het gaat om de "No photos or filming of the sex workers" poster. Dat is toch bizar?!
