Album Notes

Have you ever allowed others to push you around?
Given or been on the receiving end of verbal and/or physical abuse?
So frustrated and angry that you want to lash out at something or someone else!
Felt so worthless and all alone!

Well NOW is your ‘Time To Make A Stand’ for respect and compassion for yourself and others.
Listen to the strong and unique voice of Jacqui Clune and be inspired to take action today to:
‘Make the most of life in our own special way!

‘Time To Make A Stand’ was recently performed at the National Coalition against Bullying Conference in November, 2007 held in Melbourne Australia which was arranged by the Alannah and Madeline Foundation.

‘Time To Make A Stand’ is a song that delivers a simple but powerful message and our intention is to make this song available to all to help instil self belief while raising awareness: we do not have to like each other, but it is important to treat each other with respect and break down some of our present social barriers. Respect and compassion go hand in hand, and we also hope to encourage an increased respect and compassion for our land, our neighbouring countries and their people creating a world wide ‘Landscape of Compassion’.

A workplace bullying situation gave a personal inner heart felt emotional experience for the passion to write the lyrics by Jacqui’s mother Pamela Clune.
Pamela Clune:
“I believe at some point in our lives we all will experience a situation that will test our emotional strength.
With the support of my family and friends, I rebuilt my belief in myself and together we rebuilt our family environment into one which was positive, happy and safe.
I highly recommend that your school or workplace consider incorporating ‘Time To Make A Stand’ into your personal development program.
It is never too early or too late to learn life skills that will support you to give yourself your freedom to make the most of life in our own special way!”
