Reflections Down Under

Eve Linn

Vic and Craig decide to explore Down Under as their holiday destination and chose a Mobile home journey to travel Australia. Being confronted by Craig's absence of love and nourishment towards her, Vic encounters her own grief process related to her belated husband. Finalizing her grief process becomes a challenge she needs to master in order to see her relationship with Craig realistically and furthermore to establish healthy relationships in her future. Vic's journey through East Australia eventuates in a process of healing with her grief and finding inner peace and understanding. The constant energy of insatiable force within the Tourism Industry in Australia and the complete lack of transparency of its aboriginal beginning reveal to Vic the image of a lost ability to love and nourish versus a gained ability to neglect. She comes to see that all mighty efforts to safeguard animal and plant treasures in this continent merely acts as a cover up for the neglect towards aboriginal treasures. Vic puts her personal process down on paper and finds that if the Divine Force in every molecule of whatever matter has become out of balance, imbalance everywhere was and will be bound to occur. In putting love, the Divine Force, under a microscope, she realizes, it is up to each to his own to find their balance back again, as she comes to believe every one - indeed - has been born with this Divine Force in the first place. Un-conditioning ourselves from set religious, cultural, and political believe systems and restrictions as well as emancipating us from economic demands would be the only way to finding ourselves within; its process could open up the natural ability to respond to mutual multicultural understanding and respect.
