The Advent gift on Day 6 of Sharing the Joy comes from the Walking Together as First and Second Peoples Circle.
Circle Advocate Alison Overeem offers a reflection on 'a shared basket of new life'

And so the seeds were sown
And so the anticipation of new life was shown
Shown through the breeze
Shown through the trees
Shown through the footprints
In the sands, across these all-knowing ancient lands

Do nina tunapri new life?
Do nina tunapri hope in the healing?
Do nina tunapri healing in the hope?
Do nina tunapri?

As the echo of hope sits abundant
Whispers in the pungkatina/bush
Across the muka/water
Through story lines and song lines
Through an ancestral laritja /thread
We are being called  to the tirrina / basket of hope and anticipation

As takarilya / family
As nawnta and nita- brother and sister
As a karati/ friend mapali in the basket that will forever bind us
Forever find us
Forever call us

The time is near
As the palati/ good spirit
Whispers to our takila /heart
We know the call of our saviour is upon us
Within us
Knowing us

As the woven mat
Of ancient lands
Of creator
Of milaythina /land
Speaks to our truth

Warranta/ we feel the hope
We krakani /sit with the knowing

It is near
It is near
