Of course we thought of them yesterday and the day before and the day before that and now today because of the extreme bushfire conditions came back. Of course some of them wanted to stay home where they were and not go to a ceremony. Some will be very fragile. Some will be lost in the fog of grief and pain. Some will be reeling. The nation stopped to pay tribute and to remind them we are there in a very strong sense. We can't all be seen. The ceremony allowed our unfailing support to be seen. The timing was never going to be right with a thing like this. Too many people have been affected. It has been devastating. We are there and we are there forever. Everyday.
