Can I have a say please...

I’ve been way distracted by the goings on in Australian politics.  So distracted that all I have done is write to politicians to express my horror, amazement and utter annoyance at the crazy waste of time and space  that are our leaders are using up.  To be honest, I don’t actually believe any of our current politicians display anything that remotely even scrapes the surface of leadership. Talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place.  Labour and Liberals – not sure which is which. 

Yes we live in a world of duality.  Right, wrong; man, woman; big, small; right and left?.  It amazes me that not more of us walk around with a split personality.  Centuries of this kind of thinking have conditioned us all to be split down the middle.  To have strong opinions and unchangeable stances on one side or the other.

Where is the leader that can hold their centre.  Not the centre politically speaking, and not a mamby pamby hold no opinion, or wait for what the polls say excuse for a leader.  Not someone who wants to react to a yes with an immediate no.  Not someone who doesn’t take any time to see, but judges on first look. Where is the someone who can hold a neutral space?.  Someone who is lead by their value system which is a value system that values the all.?  That takes time and has the ability to truly listen.?  Who goes for the win win.?  Who leads from the heart.?

OK – so obviously I have way too high a standards?   But hey, I am living in this world after all.  Can I have a say please?
