But for the grace...
I’m doing this walk with my daughter Tess because I know I have been lucky in my life. Just a few bad breaks could have made it very different and seen me homeless like so many unlucky people. I’m also doing it because of the generosity of homeless people who, mistaking me in my old clothes for one of them, have given me advice about where to get a handout.
------------
I’m doing this walk with my dad because I’m feeling acutely aware of my good fortune - especially to be safe and secure in my own home with my son - and have long admired the inclusive, practical and compassionate work of the wayside chapel. And because when I suggested it to Dad, he didn’t hesitate to say yes!

Jack and Tessa, Karen and I joined Chris and Mel Selby and completed this walk about 3 or 4 years ago. It is a long trek but has interesting places on the way. I am sure you will complete comfortably it if you pace yourselves. It is for a wonderful institution to keep doing its great work. Good on you both for participating.
