Those of you have have been on the journey with me since this time two years ago, or even beyond that, would be very very aware that I have always been searching for my other half.

As a kid I always thought that my little brother had died at birth and my family had hidden the truth from me, as I just felt something was missing. My three older sisters seemed to compound my loneliness… so it was just me and my dog hanging out on the farm, searching the bush to see if the Aboriginals might have found my brother and rescued him.

As I journeyed through life, I was always finding myself a best mate and would be so devastated when we couldn’t be ratbags together, or they moved schools, or holidays took us apart. Then when I took up the expected search for girlfriends I was too nervous to do anything that would jeopardise our being together…until I realised it wasn’t the path I should have been down.

And so it carried on, the relentless saga to find my other half to make me whole. There was Ben, Marc and Sherif… they all moved on for their own reasons… and I was always left in a heap of tears and longing.

Well I made a New Year’s resolution back fifteen months ago to be whole, not to ‘need’ anymore, and, well, careful what you wish for hey…

Between then and this week, with all that occurred in between……the confidence constructing dancing in front of several million people live on TV, the surviving of our worst ever drought, the building of a ‘farm keeping’ innovative business, the exposing of my private life, the continued and humbling public interest and support in my life, the travelling through another eight countries, and getting on the level with my family whilst writing my book of adventures…

…I have realised I am a whole person.

Is it a point we all get to in life? Am I arriving late? Does this mean I have now sentenced myself to a life of bachelorhood, or does it now mean I am mature enough for another whole person to come into my circle?

Open up…you know several thousand people read this blog each month, though few reply. Today I would really love to hear where you are at in your journey to completeness…does it actually require a second person?
