  • Good Thoughts

    Times are tough these days, but human beings are resilient creatures.
       You are stronger than you think.
       This is a message wall in the local Starbucks, a community effort to spread good thoughts and a positive outlook.
       Sometimes we need daily reminders that there are people out there who care.
       Some days all it takes is a Post-it note.

  • When Time is Ripe

    Waiting for the fruit to ripen.
    Taste of anticipation, a recipe
    from a friend:
    Mango and Black Bean Salsa.
    All those flavours, each and
    every ingredient contributing
    to the mix. It seems so simple.
    Perfect for barbecue season.
    Plenty of chopping ahead.
    Summer delight, when the time
    is just right.

  • Free Time

    No appointments today, no plans at all, all week actually.
       It is not like me to have nothing to do, and it’s not like I planned it that way.
       I now have all this free time to explore time to myself.
       Think of the possibilities.

  • you can change

    When the path changes, you can change with it.
       Where you are going is often not where you planned and you may not remember why; but you will remember the changes.

  • Find The Time

    Every 60 seconds, someone in Canada needs blood.

       The current blood inventory is below an eight-day supply. Canadian Blood Services needs a regular stream of committed volunteer donors to make, and keep, their appointments. It takes about an hour.

       One hour of your time could save someone else’s life.

       I gave blood last week and have already made my August appointment.

       I give as often as I can.

       Blood: it’s in you to give.

       Can you find the time for someone else?
