Love the moral tale, Anna.Just wish there had been an old woman and daughter. My personal lesson: at age 24, a stillbirth, husband left me a month later, diagnosed with lupus around then and a few weeks later in hospital on heparin to unsuccessfully dissolve a blood clot in my leg. Disaster? No. Gough Whitlam introduced fee free uni, in fact they gave us an allowance. The opportunity to get the education I passed up earlier because my boyfriend would have been heartbroken as it meant I’m have to teachers college in the ,country. Didn’t look back.

This parable was in Bluey’s The Sign (longer) episode and it was such a beautiful episode. If you haven’t seen it, it’s about them moving house and moving towns and their uncle getting married and/or moving away - it’s a kid’s show with cartoon dogs but I have cried multiple times watching it.
