WATCH YOUR STEP
 
Thursday, December 1, 2022
 
To blithely go where no man has gone before.

It’s the steps we take every day – they indeed are that significant. When we saw Neil Armstrong on the moon on July 21, 1969, millions watched on live TV when he took “One step for man, one giant leap for mankind” …

The rest of my life, yours too, will unfold less because of everything that got you here, to this spot in place and time.

Because of the steps, the ones you will take next – now, today and tomorrow – will determine where you are going and where you end up will depend entirely on what you do next and what you do after that.

Yes, go blithely, but not blindly.

PICK A TRACK, PICK YOUR LANE
The struggle is real for many and I am happy for you that you are dealing with your struggles in such a positive manner. It seems to me that you have always, Mark.  You are the eternal optimist and deal ably with ‘off track’ moments. But, I fear the struggle for Albertans has just begun on so many levels  . . .  healthcare and education being top of mind. The proposed Sovereignty Act has the makings of a tinpot despot. Since when does a democracy allow a chosen few to determine the course of the province – giving Cabinet the power to contest any Federal legislation reeks! Not to mention the fact that Ministers are calling on constituents to ensure they don’t mandate any health measures  . . .  or, your funding could be pulled. Funk and Wagnalls defines that as ‘extortion’. And, the audacity of DS to put forward such legislation with a mandate only 0.20% of the Alberta voters. Yes, I’ve done the numbers! I’m on a rant! Take care and keep well, SB, Calgary, AB
