London and Beyond !!

My High School Emblem with motto "Courage to Care". A fitting start to this entry as it has been a while since I shared a moment on my Blog - life and the spiritual journey of renewal has taken up my time as of late. I have moved to London Ontario home of the Knights and the gritty Hunter Brothers, the London Majors of the Ontario Baseball League, Glen Pearson Liberal MP and humble and hard working statesman and home to very few CFL fans. I have liked the move the weather here thus far is humid and inviting. Lots of thunder and storms but even more daylight and sun. The job I have taken is super and people I work with are great.
I do miss my pals Bear, DB and DDP as well as friends Sue and Lori. I miss the Bombers and the Forks. My place was nice on Corydon and my life was good but in life change is apart of the program to self actualization and strength for the inner peace we all seek. I want new frontiers and challenges and seek options for me at this stage of my life.
I really want to rekindle and refocus my energies so that the spiritual strength I had in 1995 when I confronted the world and advocated a strong and prosperous future full of Liberal anecdotes is meshed with my knowledge of people and experience with divorce, child custody and job malaise. 1 miss after another has happened since my divorce and well I have been left silent, sullen at times - removed from life. The revitalization is most needed.
A couple of things I want to share - Atikokan (the logo of my high school is at the start) and Northwestern Ontario are really "God's country" and their inherent lifestyles, people and strengths are to be revered, the strength of a person is not known until a real crisis hits, the care and concern of friends is never really felt until a crisis hits, family is sacred and nurturing, politics is people and life and LIFE is precious and such a mystery that we need to embraces it every energy !!!
Oh I also am exuberant that I reside only 2 hours from the ACC and the CUP is coming to Leaf Nation very soon !!
Ciao for not from the London area!!!
