SOMETIMES

Sometimes
if you move carefully
through the forest,

breathing
like the ones
in the old stories,

who could cross
a shimmering bed of leaves
without a sound,

you come to a place
whose only task

is to trouble you
with tiny
but frightening requests,

conceived out of nowhere
but in this place
beginning to lead everywhere.

Requests to stop what
you are doing right now,
and

to stop what you
are becoming
while you do it,

questions
that can make
or unmake
a life,

questions
that have patiently
waited for you,

questions
that have no right
to go away.

~ David Whyte

Norm you have completely outdone yourself! #BestCanadianPolitician #NormForPM #TooLit

she is the air
that gives you breath
and you have been living
your life underwater.
appreciate her
before you drown.
love her now
before someone else does.

Courage is fire. Bullying is smoke.
~ Benjamin Disraeli

(Having said that, the Culinary Arts do amazing things with smoke such as smoked salmon, smoked bbq ribs, etc. My point being, if you have to deal with smoke, attempt to make use of it in a creative and productive way.)

Great roof! The potential! You could snowboard down it. More roofs need to be designed for propelling or launching small objects 🙂 What would be optimal is a mountain that you could descend that gradually slopes into the roof and then you’re airborne! That would be amazing!!!

Well. You have to start the list at some point. Big ticket items first. Bahaha!

“Those women that had homes in areas with the highest level of greenness in the surrounding 250 meters (roughly 820 feet, or a little over 1/10 of a mile) had a 12% lower rate of death compared to the women whose homes had the lowest level of greenness. Specifically, there was a 13% lower rate for cancer mortality, 35% lower respiratory disease-related mortality, and 41% lower rate for kidney disease mortality in the women living in the areas with the highest levels of green vegetation.”#EnvironmentalHealth More here on longevity.

Let me tell you why this bathroom “changed the game.” Because the person who wanted a surround sound tile experience failed to realize the time and effort required to clean 3,000,000 miles of grout with a small toothbrush. Might as well restore the Sistine Chapel’s ceiling while you are at it. It’s a beautiful bathroom, don’t get me wrong, but if you’re a perfectionist it will drive you slowly insane. Especially if you have small children who’ve got hands coated in paint. I know. Thanks to watching an episode with designer Sarah Richardson I was sucked in too! And you’re going to have to hire an expert to install because one honeycomb tile off and someone will notice it. Someone like me. And I will point it out. 🙂 Recommendation: Go subway tiles instead. #KISSDesignPrinciple #LeaveItToBeevers
