Every time I think of receiving an AM in the Australia Day Awards, I keep having to pinch myself and make sure that I am not dreaming.<\/h5>\n
I reflect on the luck that I have had in meeting great mentors throughout my career. And not only those older, but also many younger colleagues whose attitude motivated
\nand influenced my own attitude towards life.<\/h5>\n
Then I reflect on the families involved and how lucky I am with great not so young children, who all in their own right are successful and that includes a wonderful extended family who are also shining examples of just good people.<\/h5>\n
I also find it difficult to understand how someone can be given such an honour emanating from a working life that was a lifelong hobby. Attempting to explain my feelings is enormously difficult and to understand what I did to be rewarded with an AM. \u00a0Afterall All I did is what any professional should do and many do even better.<\/h5>\n
But to sum up, all I ever did in those years of working in many roles as an\u00a0 apprentice, commis \u00a0on the pans. sous and chef de cuisine, teacher, educational administrator and owner operator of a small foodie business that I have loved every moment. But to be rewarded alongside the thousands of others who have better skills, attitude, knowledge and experience bewilders me, Notwithstanding I say ; Thank you to the mentors the whole family the many friends.<\/h5>\n
I have always found delight in helping others, and this recognition suggests that perhaps I may have succeeded in some way and \u00a0thrilled that someone thought that I was a worthy candidate to be considered for this great honour and last but not least \u00a0I thank my guardian angel\u00a0 who made sure that in many instances \u00a0I was in the right place at the right time. Thank all of you. This is my story<\/h5>\n
