Frederiction New Brunswick

Travelling by train is the most scenic way to get to New Brunswick, Canada from any Canadian City. I prefer to travel first class, there is priority boarding when embarking. You can sit on the deck and read or watch people, birds or animals as the train rolls along. I fell in love with Frederiction […]

What matters

Life evolves.  There is life and there is death.  With birth comes excitement, hopefulness, gratefulness and expectantancy.   Life is so full of promise we tell ourselves.  We forget all our disappointments and look forward to a wonderful future.  We make plans and we stand back and look at the life we created, the life […]

Life as we know it

I just want to share my prospective on life.  To me life is a journey into the unknown, and to traverse its highways we have to find time for meditation and thanksgiving.   I believe we are all here to fulfill a divine purpose but we have to figure out what our purpose is.  There […]

Mirroring Self

One of my favourite songs is “Man in the Mirror” by Michael Jackson.  It puts me back in the decision making seat.  It allows me to re-assess and to acknowledge that inspite of what is happening I have to look at myself and ask why and how did I find myself in the place I am. […]

Word count

She told me to expect him at 8, a date, but isn’t that a bit late. The door bell rang, I peeped through the hole in the door and who do I see, or rather what did I see:  a bouquet of roses tied with a ribbon attached to a note. I read the note […]

Thank You

  Being thankful can be therapeutic.    It is being present in every moment and taking the opportunity to be appreciative.  There is always something to be thankful for.   We are not always happy about parts of our bodies, but if we take the time to look at the whole picture we would see […]

Coffee Date

If we were having coffee right now I would tell you that I miss having you here.   I am feeling refreshed and in a jolly mood and I know you would be happy for me.    We can go for walks in the park, and I know you would like that too.   We […]
