Assalaam Alaikum (That is Arabic for peace unto you all),

 I have been bugged by people whom I meet around the world, as well as from my hometown of Sydney, to start a weblog in order to share my thoughts by reflecting on the current affairs, what others say and comment on them in a solutions-oriented way. I have been shrugging off the idea, but the more I see important issues in the public space, the more I realise they have been right that this is a convenient and possibly effective way to contribute towards positive outcomes. Easier said than done, that is for sure! I do thank the people who are maintaining this space for me, because without them, firstly I would have no clue what to do and secondly this space would be one clean blank given the task of maintaining it!

I do not promise anything at all on this blog! However, I am in prayer that this can be of benefit, and when I see that it can be, I will get in here and share my thoughts and seek your constructive engagement whenever possible.

I suppose there are only two rules for this blog:

• Rule 1- Rudeness, sarcasm, dishonesty, stupidity, sophomoric yadayada and all the antitheses to thought leadership will have no space here.
  

• Rule 2- As long as rule # 1 can be avoided, keep your thoughts, advice and recommendations coming!
