Luke Hand Diary: Shifting Perspectives and Foxy Discoveries
Realised today that their number is just a fraction of Victoria and that the vast majority of us are on the same team and working together. All good! Let these drongos carry on
Ever been jolted awake by a familiar yet long-forgotten sound? Luke Hand kicks off this episode with a nostalgic moment, waking up to the hum of his mum’s MacBook Pro hard drive. It’s a sound that might baffle millennials but brings back memories for many of us. From there, Luke dives into a significant shift in his mindset about recent protests.
Initially bogged down by the confusion of who was protesting and why, he comes to a liberating realization: these protesters are just a tiny fraction of Victoria. The majority are united and working together. This new perspective allows him to let go of the frustration and focus on the bigger picture. Luke’s day continues with a mix of mundane tasks and small joys.
He receives a portable door lock and a handy storage pouch for his car, little things that make life just a bit easier. Work, as always, is a whirlwind of due, overdue, and soon-to-be-due tasks, but he manages to carve out some time for a walk with his mum. During their stroll, they encounter an intriguing smell that Luke learns is the scent of a fox.
It's not pleasant, but it’s another piece of the world around him falling into place. The episode wraps up with some lively banter in an Oasis fan chat and a well-deserved yuzu sake booze-free cocktail enjoyed in beautiful weather. Through it all, Luke’s reflections remind us that sometimes, all it takes is a shift in perspective to see things in a new light.
His daily updates offer an authentic glimpse into the life of someone living sober, filled with small victories and moments of clarity.
