Opportunity

Every opportunity is once in a lifetime stuff because we never get the time back.  Make the most of the opportunities but only take hold of the opportunities God gives. Be wise. Take care.

So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days. Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do.
Ephesians 5:15‭-‬17 NLT

Our group for adults is growing and we are learning from each other, encouraging each other, and recognising,  that in the many challenges we face each day, we are not alone.  We want to support and encourage those in our group, continue to advocate for better support for those living with ADHD  in the community, and educate our community on the realities of ADHD. There are many positive aspects to ADHD but families can feel overwhelmed by the challenges and we want to make a difference be for them.  The media often produces sensationalised stories that improp...

Dismissed

Dismissed - why are women and their concerns always dismissed by men? Why, when we are trying to give input and add information and understanding to a topic, why are we always dismissed. When we speak, we are seldom heard. When we are knowledgeable we are not given the opportunity to be listened too. We are dismissed. Then the world wonders why women rise in indignation at the treatment they receive. Only to be dismissed. Jill Whalan
