Hello, dearest members! Welcome to another edition of our Sunday newsletter! I (Jarred) and the rest of the team hope this message finds you in high spirits and ready to embrace a day of rest. Whether you're curled up with a captivating book, savouring a warm cup of tea, or are enjoying the company of loved ones, we encourage you to embrace the spirit of relaxation that Sundays bring.
Now, I know what you’re here for, and it’s our quote of the week. Here’s this week’s quote from member @Nana Zorak:
‘Only you know what you have been through, so learn from it!’
This quote serves as a reminder to honour our unique journeys, acknowledging that the lessons we gain from our experiences are valuable and can lead us towards a more fulfilling and meaningful life. It urges us to embrace the knowledge we acquire from our trials and tribulations and recognise that we have the ability to transform challenges into opportunities for growth if only we remember to look inward. Thank you so much for this lovely reminder, member @Nana Zorak!
Now, let’s look at what happened across Australia and around the world this week:
