This is another video excerpt from Day 77 of the BIG WALK (For The Kids’ Cancer Project), where I was talking about sorrow, pain, how the world sometimes seems like it’s built to hurt us, to pin us down and keep us there.
But then I talk about transforming sorrow, pain, fear into hope, and how that’s a great light that we get to share with each other.
(While talking I bump into this wonderful person, Penny, and we get a concrete example)
In a world that sometimes feels broken, I’ve been trying to figure out who I’m supposed to be, what I’m supposed to do. This video is an excerpt from a live-stream taken on Day 75 of Captain Australia’s BIG WALK (for The Kid’s Cancer Project), that kind of sums up how I feel about life – I call it my Manifesto of Kindness. Do good, let it spread and grow, make the world BETTER.
That simple.
To further that, I’m looking at (whether I get to take the BIG LAP or not) a counselling qualification, to try and help show a road map out of sorrow and darkness, as I feel a sense of agency and urgency in deciding what to do with the rest of my life, and I think the answer is simple.
I want to help.
G’day There
Just wanted to share some insights. One literally being from the SBS Show Insight – I was on the tellie and the program aired on the 4th of October, here’s an excerpt. If you want to see the full thing, sign up for SBS live-streaming and look at past episodes of INSIGHT, it’s a great show.

The other insight relates to BARRY, the unpaid sound intern.
There are people who have just stumbled onto Captain Australia’s BIG WALK and only have the loosest of ideas what it’s about. All these live streams where I’m talking to someone named “Barry” and going “Bop Bop A Diddley”. It was just a running joke for the people watching, that I was slowly going crazy, believing that Barry the Sound Intern was helping me with the live streams (because every TV show needs theme music).
This video kind of explains it and shows you what I mean:
