Browning Day’s Post

'Galangoor djali, nara' 'Good day, welcome' While wandering through the Hervey Bay Botanic Gardens, I stumbled across this sign by a Butchulla elder, and found it so insightful. Their three laws for living are so simple: 1. What’s good for the land comes first. 2. Don’t touch what isn’t yours. 3. If you’ve got plenty, share it. It’s the kind of wisdom that makes you rethink how we live today. Imagine if we applied these to daily life: - What if every decision (big or small) considered what’s best for the environment first? - Don’t touch what isn’t yours: This isn’t just about stuff. It’s about respect—respecting people’s boundaries, their cultures, and even their time. It’s a reminder to tread lightly in every sense. - If you’ve got plenty, share it: Whether it’s knowledge, resources, or just a moment of your day, sharing strengthens community. It’s about looking out for each other, because we’re all connected. It’s a simple roadmap to live more thoughtfully and leave behind a legacy worth being proud of. The sign ends with a reminder: 'Wherever you go, leave only footprints'. That one’s going to stick with me for a while. #LifeLessons #IndigenousWisdom #ButchullaPeople #CulturalHeritage #RespectTheLand #CommunityValues #Holidays ALT TEXT: A vibrant sign at the Warun Bush Tucker Garden in Hervey Bay Botanic Gardens. It features a traditional Aboriginal artwork of a dolphin surrounded by dot patterns, symbolising connection and culture. The text explains the three laws of the Butchulla people. It emphasises the importance of respecting the land, sharing resources, and leaving only footprints behind.

Embrace Village Charm in Southwater, United Kingdom

December 21 marks the #WinterSolstice, the shortest day and longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. For centuries, cultures worldwide have observed this turning point with traditions that honour the return of light and the promise of renewal. In the UK, each year, thousands gather at #Stonehenge to witness the sunrise aligning with the ancient stones. For modern-day Druids, Pagans, and others, this is a time to celebrate the cycle of nature and the renewal of life. Historically, the solstice was marked with festivals like #Yule, symbolizing the rebirth of the Sun. Many modern Christmas traditions, such as decorating evergreen trees and lighting candles, trace back to these ancient customs. Winter Solstice is a chance to pause & reflect in the turning of seasons.  As we embrace the solstice, it reminds us of the beauty in our connection to nature and the enduring human spirit to celebrate renewal. Wishing everyone a bright and peaceful Winter Solstice!

Nestled deep in Sicily is the Casa Du Currivu, a quirky gem whose name translates to House of Spite. This two-storey wonder, only three feet wide, has grabbed the global attention not just because its unoffically the world’s narrowest house, but because of its juicy backstory of neighborly betrayal.    The house is in a quaint Sicilian neighborhood in the 1950s, where life hummed along until an argument shattered the peace one day. It all started innocently enough when a neighbor decided to raise their roof without so much as a nod to the others, violating the unspoken rule of neighborly decorum.    Tempers flared, words flew, and before anyone knew it, a full-blown feud was born. But instead of resorting to typical tit-for-tat, one dissatisfied party opted for a more creative form of revenge, giving birth to what is now known as the world's narrowest house. Painted in a dark hue as a silent protest, it stood defiantly across from the offending property as a stark reminder of a friendship gone sour.    As visitors flock to Petralia Sottana, they come not just to marvel at its tiny stature but to ponder a universal question: What motivates us to build, to create, and sometimes, to destroy? Within the House of Spite, they find more than just a building, they encounter a reflection of human relationships, a stark reminder that even in the smallest spaces, our actions leave lasting echoes.    #CasaDuCurrivu #HouseOfSpite #WorldsNarrowestHouse #SicilianGem #NeighborlyFeud #PetraliaSottana #CreativeRevenge #HumanRelationships #BuildingStories #ReflectingOnActions #EchoesOfThePast

How to Host a Successful Interest Gathering for Your Church Plant

Heritage Day is a day to reflect on where we come from. To celebrate our ancestors and the gifts and blessings that they have bestowed on us - individually and collectively. It should also be a day to look ahead, as our actions today create the future for those who follow us. We need to ask ourselves: What heritage are we crafting? What gifts and blessings are we preparing to bestow to those who come after us? What seeds are we planting for future harvest?
