ACT OF KINDNESS – “I WAS RAISED BY A QUEEN”. October 21, 2015. One Ontario man’s tiny act of kindness is making a huge impact on social media. Godfrey Cuotto, a 21-year-old student in Hamilton, Ont., was photographed holding hands with a man named Robert with special needs on a local bus earlier this week. The photo, which was later posted on the Facebook page “Only In Hamilton” on Tuesday by a stranger, has now gone viral. 8220;I just allowed it, like what am I going to do?

Trying to live by compassion and reason – thoughts on the journey. Archive for the ‘celebration/inspiration’ Category. Laquo; Older Entries. Collins vs Darcy on consent. It occurred to me earlier this evening, as I supped with my son and daughter, that a most suitable example of the difference between respecting feminine choice and dismissing it can be found in the pages of one of the English language’s most admired works: the excellent.

The Agin' Canagin': Destination without Journey

Tuesday, 2 December 2014. 8216;I will take my life at noon today. It's time'. Gillian Bennett was 83 on the summer day in 2014 when she took her own life. The setting was idyllic: a short walk from her house on Bowen Island, made harder and longer by the foam mattress she had to drag without help to her favourite spot, a grassy perch with a stunning view. Had her husband Johnathan assisted her in any way, he would be breaking the law. And if that is feasible, how reliably can a normal brain accurately as...

A Lick & A Promise: I will #banbossy!
http://blog.aideen.info/2015/05/i-will-banbossy.html
A Lick and A Promise. Random thoughts and observations. Available on Amazon.com. Friday, May 1, 2015. A long time ago, I discovered quite by accident, that I was very bossy, at least that is how it was defined back then. This trait was not very apparent when I was growing up because I was so painfully shy that speaking to anyone other than immediate family was extremely difficult. It is not easy to be bossy if you can't speak. For this particular exercise, we were divided into teams of 5. Each team w...

A Lick and A Promise. Random thoughts and observations. Available on Amazon.com. Wednesday, July 1, 2015. Writing as a therapy. I wrote my book ( Peeling the Onion. I didn't realized that this was a recognized form of therapy until I decided to expand on it here, and doing some google searches informed me I was not the first to come up with this idea. Then, more recently, expressing my annoyance on my Facebook status, at the tuneless whistling in the office seemed to reduce my irritation. I am guessi...
