In this world of blogging, I have discovered that it’s the most random, last-minute events that will undoubtedly capture you the most.
Some of you may be aware of my personal affiliation with World Vision Australia. I ran for them at the City 2 Surf and after much (unnecessary) contemplation, became a sponsor.
When I was invited to attend the book launch for “Vision of Hope: Mother and Child” yesterday, I scrambled my schedule around so that I could be there tonight. And I was not disappointed.
I will write a much more detailed post at a later date, but in the meantime, I leave you with this beautiful capture from the book and its accompanying poignant quote:
“If we do not plant knowledge when young, it will give us no shade when we are old” – Lord Chesterfield
You can purchase a copy of the book here, where proceeds will help the poorest communities around the world.
