Cam's Reflections Welcome to Cam’s Reflections, a space dedicated to thoughtful insights into life, society, and the pursuit of justice.

Join me as I share reflections, spark conversations, and celebrate community and progress, one insight at a time. Born into the Coloured community in Cape Town, South Africa, during a time of unrest, I’ve spent my life challenging societal expectations and pushing beyond the labels assigned to me. My journey has been one of resilience, learning, and transformation. Now living in New Zealand, I bri

📢 The True Cost of Immigration: More Than Just Money 💭✈️

Moving to a new country is an adventure, but have you ever considered the hidden emotional and psychological costs? 🌍💔

While we often focus on the financial aspects, housing, job security, and expenses, there’s a deeper reality: saying goodbye to family, missing out on important moments, and navigating the emotional rollercoaster of starting over.

But what if we looked beyond these frameworks? Drawing on biblical teachings, particularly from the book of Amos, I explore an alternative moral perspective that prioritizes equity, ethical governance, and reconciliation.
