"It's an honour to be in grief.
It's an honour to feel that much,
to have loved that much."
Elizabeth Gilbert

It may seem like a clichè, but it's true. One of life's undeniable realities, is that we grieve proportionately to how much we loved.
Grief is the price we pay for loving.

❤️🩷🧡💛💚💙💙💜

Thank you!
Thank you one thousand times to all our CFA volunteers who have been fighting the Otway fires these past few days. Your dedication to the safety of our community, to the protection of the animals and of our wild places is incredible and every one of us is in your debt.
So, thank you!

This photo originated in the U.S a few years back, photographer unknown, but it perfectly illustrates how valuable our fire firefighters are. They are pots of gold for sure!
Please share any pics you might have of our local heroes, below. 🧡🧡🧡
