Trusting our intuition.

February 6, 2015

Trusting your intuition or gut feelings can sometimes save your life. Teach your girls and boys that it is okay to say ‘back off’ and be assertive. If some one seems too good to be true then be curious. I speak from my own experiences. http://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/canada/winnipeg-woman-caught-up-in-international-sex-assault-investigation/ar-AA93j2j?ocid=UP97DHP

I hope the power and voice of a vote counts & protects women in India. The tide of change has begun in addressing the legitimate fear of public spaces and harassment in the streets. If no one says anything the violence continues. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-31120987

Water and air are taken for granted until we run out.

January 28, 2015

We turn on our tapes and get clean water to drink with little thought. Tapes and clean drinking water are not available to millions of people around the world and yes they get sick. Perhaps this is an opportunity to re-evaluate the precious resources in our country and the health of our water. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/winnipeg-boil-water-advisory-city-to-provide-morning-update-1.2934467
