Mati Jo Beams, Byron Bay
I recently witnessed a murder, a hit and run outside the Links golf course on the road from Suffolk Park to Byron.
The baby was struck. The driver drove on, either oblivious or uncaring of the fact that a dying being lay on the road.
The baby died in my arms. I placed her gently under the Blue Quandong tree in front of the Links.
All life is sacred. Speed kills. Please slow down and be alert to all living beings as they cross the road. We are all part of one living Earth.
