LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: I am extremely grateful that I get to live on the traditional territory of the Wolastoqiyik (Malisset) and Mi’Kmaq Peoples. I acknowledge the damage and injustice that has been done to First Nations Peoples by settlers and that still needs to be addressed and corrected. I promise to revere this land that I live, play and create on; to treat its resources with respect; and to support Indigenous business and cultural initiatives whenever and wherever possible.

I love the title of this post, but I can’t take any credit for it. A Call to be Kind is this year’s theme for Mental Health Week in Canada, which runs from May 6-12. The intent of the theme … Continue reading
Thoughtful Thursday: A little food for thought 😊
There are times when we really should stop and think before we speak. These memes help remind us of that reality. And, I just can’t resist including this one. Read it as “being stupid”, not “stupid”. No offense intended!

War, what is it good for?
Apparently ‘War, what is it good for?’ is the name of a song, but for me it will always be a line from a Seinfeld episode. Elaine made the mistake of believing Jerry when he told her that Leo Tolstoy … Continue reading

Profound questions, seeking our attention and deserving action
I’ve had this post of fellow blogger Rose Vettleson, Meaningful Intelligent Conversations, in my interesting-stuff pile since first reading it in August of 2022. I had the idea of writing a post on each of her questions, but I still … Continue reading
