Being patriotic; loving Australia; celebrating Australia; remembering our ANZACs etc.

Quick little fact check.

Immigrants immigrate to developed countries. Our settlers came to Australia before “Australia” existed (was named as Australia).

Being Australian is mateship, having a fair go, watching out for your neighbours, loving our larrikins and bogans etc

Means being it a country that has beautiful nature. It means having on ok health system (but it could be better). It means having support for some who need it but not all yet. Unfortunately at the moment it means being in a country that could become very unsafe soon if the antics of the weekend are anything to go by. As a parent it means being in a country where there is opportunity for my child but who knows how that will change.

# data[].attributes.body
To be Australian is to be one together, united as a country despite individual morals, beliefs, and preferences. Australia is such a multicultural place, and it should be a place where everyone is able to coexist and live together. To begin with we are all on stolen land, it is a place we should be very grateful to be able to be on, and everyone should be open and wanted to share it with others, especially as we are not the ones who own this land.

Living in a land rich with culture and traditions. It means recognising where we have been, where we are now and where we are going. To me, being Australian means many things. It means family, community, a unique sense of humour and diversity. From the bush to the beach being Australian means respecting everyone, accepting change and living life to the fullest.

Being Australian means living in a country of freedom, opportunity, and an easygoing way of life. I respect that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples were here first and continue to care for this land.

I was born in the Netherlands, and while my Dutch heritage is part of me, Australia has given me something new, space, fresh air, amazing work opportunities, and a laid-back lifestyle. To me, being Australian is about enjoying the outdoors, working hard but also relaxing, and embracing the mix of cultures that make this country home.
