Australian bushland spirituality - Straddie


Nothing beats the Australian bushland for spiritual balance and personal equilibrium.

Its craggy features, lopsided but robust gums, upright and strong Australian grass trees – whether lush or burnt, golden red sunsets, eagles, dolphins, etc. etc. etc. and especially the resilience of everything standing and beneath – inspire and refresh!

My birthplace of Stradbroke Island is these and so much more! Spending these two weeks here is so invigorating.

Driving along the long white sandy beaches and sand tracks, watching the brilliant nightly sunsets, walking the tracks and gorges, watching the whales, dolphins and exotic marine life from on high and at close range, relaxes the mind and soul.

Staying close to nature in camping grounds adds another whole new depth to these experiences.

These are truly natural and wonderful experiences of God in all that is oneness!
