I am an American who is very very pro-Canadian. They are going through some things right now including some national political turmoil and being bullied by Donald Trump. I will always stand with Canada and Canadians.
Dear Canada, I Love You

It’s Winter Solstice Day 2024
According to Wikipedia, the winter solstice, also called the hibernal solstice, occurs when either of Earth’s poles reaches its maximum tilt away from the Sun. This happens twice yearly, once in each hemisphere. It’s also a day to welcome the beginning of winter. Stay warm everyone!
Rejoice – The Third Sunday of Advent
Today is the third Sunday of Advent – Known as “Gaudete,” (rejoice) Sunday, the pink candle in the Advent Wreath is a reminder of the explosive power of the season. To all who celebrate be sure to rejoice in the season.
Compassion For The Season
Many people find this time of year difficult to navigate. Compassion can be a gift that keeps on giving even after the holidays. Everyone can use a break. I believe that God is there with us as we travel through life even this time of year. As we journey through Advent, Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, and New Year’s Day many memories are brought to the forefront.
This time of year can bring unexpected events such as illness and traumas that make life more challenging. I think we need to be there for one another through all the things that are going on. Good things like compassion, empathy, sympathy, and kindness are always the best gifts anyone can get.
The best part is that you don’t need to wrap them up or wait for them under your tree on Christmas Day. To all of you, my friends know that you have my compassion in your struggles.
Thought Of The Day 12142024
We are all struggling with something. No need in adding to someone’s burdens. Everyone needs a break and a little encouragement to get through it all.
Happy Black Friday!
It’s that time of year again. Black Friday is a huge day for shopping for the holidays. I’m sure there are people who get up real early to get the best deals. To those bargain hunters may the odds be ever in your favor.
