I am John Murray, an Australian, Catholic priest of the Order of St Augustine. I live and work in Thailand and have been here since October 2005. I have many stories from my life journey and would simply like to share some of them. So hope you enjoy and go away sometime with a smile or a helpful little insight.

The unsung heroes
You know because I live in Bangkok and and work with refugees and Caritas Thailand, some people see me as some sort of hero. I don't believe that. I just do what I need to do and can do, and I am heppy that I get the opportunity to do what I choose to do what I choose in life. So I see myself as lucky, or maybe better named as blessed.
Being at home with mum and dad in their old age, I see who the heroes are - my sisters and others like them who look after their elderly parents or loved ones. It is not easy and one has to be so patient and cheery despite all difficulties. These are among the unsung heroes in our world.
I guess we all do our bit and have our place in life. It is a matter of finding it and living it.
