Finding peace in the wilderness

Finding peace in the wilderness


Aborigines have lived in the northern territories of Australia. The government talks of assimilating them into the mainstream, but has not worked yet. On the contrary, most of them are under the pressures of 21st Century life. They ravages by alcoholism, suicide and domestic violence. On the plateau where they lived is autonomous and alcohol free. The problem is Aborigines can not fit the mainstream life. One of the Aborigines guys went to a state school, but he quitted. Because of he couldn’t write, read and even recognize numbers. But are those really special than how to survive in the bush? This is a difference of concept of values. In the bush, writing calculating formula and knowledge of world politics does not mean anything.
Many problems related with Aborigines are unsolved. One is the amount of buffalo is increasing in the plateau. I think, one factor of circumstance absence hit a big impact on environment.
