  • Come on along…

    Amazing sights, new tastes and great people play a role. But at the heart of the matter is our own open spirit and curiosity, a sense of romance found in small things, and a friendly approach to our fellow humans. This key opens the door to unforgettable experiences and delights. Come on along as I explore those magic moments that join the wisdom of the past to the pleasures of today. Our simple human need for sustenance is the starting point for the world around us. As a writer, I record and preserve the accounts of what sustains us. After all, our capacity for enjoyment and wonder have no limit.

Oh Canada…

Where do we go from here?

As with all long-term relationships, we seem to be having our ups and downs at the moment. Don’t get me wrong, I still think we can sort them out, but I just wanted you to know I’m concerned. Maybe you’re going through a midlife crisis or something.

We just don’t seem to be talking about the same things anymore. Sometimes I wonder: Could it be we’re growing apart? I hope not.

I’ve been very supportive of you over the years. Never has a moment slipped by when I haven’t taken the opportunity to talk about your accomplishments or achievements to anyone who would listen.  I defend you when people say you’re boring. I tell them you just see things differently, you’re a bit cautious, that’s all.You’d prefer to sit back and think about things a bit, and when you’ve made your decision it’s usually the right one for all the right reasons.

I know we’ve had our share of issues in the past. I know I need to take my share of the blame, and I do.  It’s just that we’ve been able to work through some of our issues and move on. Now I’m not so sure.

I think we still want the same things. I’ve heard other people commenting on your behaviour as well. People are starting to talk. I just wanted to let you know we’re all a bit concerned.

It’s great you’re exploring new ways to express yourself. I, for one, never want to stop you from growing, and I know you feel the same way about me. I guess that’s why I’m a bit shocked with the choices you’ve been making.

But today is a time to celebrate you. We’ve certainly had our share of great times together.

Happy Birthday, Canada.
