This list could go on forever, but this is enough hard truths to keep most of us up at night.

The Canadian Flag @ 60 Years

Today is Flag Day in Canada, and this year marks the anniversary of the Canadian Flag that was first flown above Parliament Hill in Ottawa in 1965.

Heart On Sleeve

I’ve been wearing my heart on my sleeve lately. I’m a bleeding heart for justice, peace, and faith. There’s lots of stuff going on that is not fair and lots of people are getting hurt by it in one way or another.

Just a word of advice to all of you considering doing the same.
