Mensaje de Navidad 2008
Written by President   
Saturday, 03 January 2009

“If you don’t have heart you don’t have nothing.”



It seems that in the blink of an eye, we have reached the end of another year! What turbulent times we are living in. In the midst of the threat of economic recession, the joy of a new President Elect in the USA and war in the middle east, Xmas has come and gone and the New Year is well and truly upon us.

This year has confirmed for me that it is indeed true that “if you don’t have heart you don’t have nothing”. As President, I would like to thank all the people and organizations who have supported, contributed and enabled Fagmedia to grow and develop throughout the year.

In particular, I would like to remember and give thanks for the life of Carlos Ochoa who passed away in 2008. I can say that Carlos was a man of integrity whose life was a blessing that brought great joy to the world. He was generous, kind, compassionate and demonstrated courage and great depth of character. Carlos was a truly gifted man who is deeply missed by all the many people who knew and loved him.

As an organization, Fagmedia has continued to be a strong independent media organization. We have chosen to support a number of "worthy causes", such as Getup.org and the Burnet Institute´s HIV Evaluation Programs, and have strived to build connections and assist in the development of community. We do not seek to impose a view, opinion or ideology upon anyone and we have continued to “break the rules” and talk about sex, politics and religion. In doing so we hope to educate, raise consciousness and ask important questions of and about the world we live in.

ED Letter 1/09

To the Editor,

You are so right about people not caring & it happens all the time when we`re out, people will not move aside to let us pass & even look at me & move to take a stand to show me they will not move so it would be very difficult in a wheel chair & people do not give eye contact to people in a chair or talk to them & treat them like they are deaf & dumb, it has gone on forever & a day that wheel chairs are not given proper access to toilets & ramps etc.

My husband always tries to lend a hand when he can & I try to have eye contact with folk in a chair.

I don`t know how things will ever change or if something happens to people in life that makes them wake up & not be so selfish or if they just stay the same.

I will say that when we get on a crowded train someone always jumps up & gives me their seat which I`m always very thankful for & it makes me think that I must look like an old lady now :-)

 

So it`s good that you are giving them a nudge with your write up, Ita Buttrose was always spruiking about the lack of manners & consideration.

How different life would be if all people were kind & warm hearted & it wouldn`t cost them a cent.

All the best for 2009.

Kind Regards,

Esther, Joondalup, Western Australia.
