Just yesterday our neighbour came over with her 3-year old son to wish us a happy Christmas. He was jumping up and down, so excited was he to be part of the grand divine design to love each other. First he gave their card to me; then he took it and gave it to my husband. He wanted to be sure we knew that we were both loved. After a short visit in front of our Christmas tree, with Carson jumping up and down, back and forth the whole time, we said our goodbyes, and I hugged Jani, the mother. Immediately, Carson hugged me, too. So sweet
After several anxious days before a family trip, today several things fell into place, bringing me some Christmas happiness! A dear friend brought me a knitted hat, to replace one I’d loaned to a student, but never saw again. I had recently been given some old pictures to use their frames for my work. So I matched one with a hopefully suitable picture, as a thank-you for the hat.
A family member just called to say that the big dinner this year would be quite casual, so don’t think about bringing a skirt or jewellery as we would likely all be spending some time on the floor with very small children. And I heard that one of our family just won a scholarship for the next term … a nice help. Good popping up all over!
I started to enjoy drinking wine alone at home after coming to Canada. The difference between strong alchohol like vodca and wine for me is drinking wine make me calm down and relaxed. When I drink wine, I think about something deeply and write down it on wine bottle which I spend time with. That can remind me what I thought and what I regretted. It’s a more effective way than taking a note on my notebooks. You know it’s quite demanding to open my notebooks and rethink about what I felt. And this way can preserve the emotion on it. It’s like wine is empty but I stuff my thoughts and emotions.
I want to share my small pieces of thoughts.
We have lots of kinds of connections with others such as a father and son, a boyfriend and girlfriend, a employer and employee etc. We have lots of conversation with them. In this conversation, we often think something different from we are talking. In other words, to relax others and not to be a bad guy, we sometimes say flattering words. But I think it’s a sad and heartbreaking behavior to ignore others. There is a Korean proverb “on same bed, but different thinking”. I have decided to become more sincere and heavy.
Hospitality and opportunity at Tuscany’s Island Savings
Went to Tuscany Village for three reasons, one of which to have a chat with the manager of #IslandSavings, Kelly Sterk. When I entered the host messaged Kelly that I wanted to meet, and asked if I wanted a coffee or tea while I was waiting. I chose hot chocolate on this blustery day and sat down and enjoyed the ambiance of their gleaming branch.
Kelly soon came out and we had a tremendous chat about TravelerInYourOwnTown… and the courage it sometimes takes to engage with strangers in a bus or on the street.
He ended with saying, ” Let others know that they are welcome to come in for a free hot chocolate. I told four people at Thrifties in the next 8 minutes.. What a wonderful experience it was.
Part of the draw was a friend of ours was in it. I appreciated being able to quietly ask my wife about details as we went along. Then I added a new element to keep my interest. I looked for all the spiritual qualities the dancers showed: balance, strength, focus, agility, etc. I left the show knowing more about the Nutcracker tradition ( there are so many stories within it to build a performance around) and loved thinking about those qualities which are available to us all.
