 The metaphor I try to use to describe change and the journey, it's like the metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly and that's what I see this program as. What we're going to be making here is you to be able to fly, to take your ideas, to be able to change the world, have the credentials to do it but also that savvy, those other skills that are necessary to really be life ready. I saw the campus, I saw the people, I saw the people I was going to be with for the next few years at university and I went, yep, this is totally for me. I came home after that first day and I sat down at my lounge and said to my dad, this is what I want to do. This is brilliant, you know, and I started crying, I started crying, it was just that thing, it was just such a beautiful moment in time. Everybody wants to know what you think and cares about your opinion. It's just a really beneficial place to build your knowledge, we're all equal, which I found really good. Culture Respect is one of the key values in the Maramolli program and I think that stood out to me not only in my own community but knowing that everybody has a culture and that that is really important to create diversity in the world, to be able to come together with different perspectives on the world and to be able to achieve a common goal of having global leadership and achieving these things like peace. Having Culture Respect is a huge thing in my own culture. I love my music and I do that all the time, but the big thing I love about the Maramolli program is the environmental side of it. Being a very proud dark and young man, the land and the spiritual connection to the land is so important to me. I think all of us have a desire to give back and I think the things we're going to learn and have been learning will enable us to do that. We all get on really well. A lot of the students are fresh out of school, a lot of them are intermediate parts of life, a lot of them have families and their own kids, yet we can all talk amongst each other, we can talk about anything. You come together with a whole group of different people from different backgrounds that you might not necessarily get in your own degree, in your own job, in your workforce and in your life and your circles that you're hanging around. Having those people come in from all different views and walks of life makes a little family that opens your eyes to so much more. The power and influence of the ripple effect of the scholar program means every interaction is a chance to make a difference. It starts inside of each of us, that we're a confident change agent, that we feel strong in our abilities and our personal self-worth, and that we're taking care of our mob, the people you love and who love you. As lonely as COVID and lockdown can be, I know that I've always got this group of people that will always accept me and listen to me. It teaches you how to really experience the world in a positive way no matter what's going on. I feel like I've grown as a person, as a being, on a spiritual level, on a physical level, emotional level for sure.
