Lest We Forget

This past Remembrance Day was a busy one for me - more on that later.

I was, however, given the opportunity to see a moving video of Shawn Hlookoff's "Soldier"

Have a look at the video and take some time to think about our Canadian military who are serving our country as well as the many who have died for our freedom throughout Canada's history.

Busyness...

“When we get too caught up in the busyness of the world, we lose connection with one another - and ourselves” - Jack Kornfield

I really need to reconnect...

...with my family and with myself.

I recently read about a pastor's experiences when he went to a monastary for a "Silence" retreat. Seven days of complete silence - only listening to your own thoughts. This concept seems more and more welcoming as every crazy week goes by.
