Richard Dobson

After five years in international pop band "Five," selling millions of records and four number one albums I finally moved to Australia where my life began again and I have finally got a proper job as director of "The Pavilion 8 Group."

We create businesses, mainly in the hospitality sector, you know the type of things, restaurants, bars, hotels. I believe in my team. I believe in my dream. I feel blessed for the people around me, friends and work colleagues, loved ones and family.

I want a dog someday and sometimes wish I would surf more.

I am about to write a list of things that I want to do, a "bucket list," I am going to print it off and put it on my wall and cross off each one as I do them because its time to truly start to live, none of us have long in the grand scheme of things and if not now, when?

Some people think that my life has been easy. I assure you, it hasn't. There have been a few times when I have been almost broken but I believe that those times only serve to make you stronger and give thanks for the opportunity to grow. Pray for courage and you will be given a chance to show it.

I'm loving my life, all of them and I hope you are too, no matter how weird, wonderful, unique or apparently mundane.
