We are One and Free

Australia has changed a line in its National Anthem.

"The Australian government removed a reference to the country being “young and free” in the national anthem, amid concerns the existing wording overlooks the history of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people that stretches back tens of thousands of years. From New Year’s Eve the second line of Advance Australia Fair will say: “For we are one and free.” This replaces the existing line: “For we are young and free.”

Why is this significant?

I personally see God's plan unfolds in mysterious ways and how we one to the realisation of our Oneness, happens in supple ways.

How else will our oneness be realised?

Do you see any significance with that changed verse?

And a Happy New Year to you and yours Tony! :)

Yes........ this news is all over the BBC this morning. A good decision.

Let's hope that any kind of racism is reduced this year throughout the World.
I can't hope for more than a reduction......
