July 2014 – the northern nomad
https://olvieli.wordpress.com/2014/07
Come away with me to a quiet place. Find rest to your soul. A smidge of Olvie. It has been seven years since I played baseball. I don't think I have ever played "fastball" either. When I was fourteen, my mother enrolled me in a week of baseball camp with "Rob Butler". He was, apparently, a once-upon-a-time. Continue Reading →. July 31, 2014. A smidge of Olvie.

discipline. – the northern nomad
https://olvieli.wordpress.com/2015/07/22/discipline
Come away with me to a quiet place. Find rest to your soul. A smidge of Olvie. Nothing has been ordinary these days. But extraordinary is a good thing. I decided I need more discipline. Raised by uptight Hong Kong-Chinese parents, discipline and hard work was just expected. And I believe I have it. I just need MORE. Excerpt from a Humans of New York post. This morning I decided to get up at 6 am. Then I decided to run 5 kilometers. It was hard. But discipline is hardwork. I just bought a house. Being a f...

The least of my bruthas. – the northern nomad
https://olvieli.wordpress.com/2015/05/09/the-least-of-my-bruthas
Come away with me to a quiet place. Find rest to your soul. A smidge of Olvie. The least of my bruthas. Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me. Matt says it well in Jesus’ words. It didn’t become real until I met Hawk. Just a kid. Panhandling two doors down from the night club. I saw him sitting in the dark in his toque and Jays t-shirt ahead of me. I’m not going to disregard him. I’ll just look at him and smile…. Can you spare some change, miss? Have a good night.

Growing old ungracefully. – the northern nomad
https://olvieli.wordpress.com/2015/11/19/growing-old-ungracefully
Come away with me to a quiet place. Find rest to your soul. A smidge of Olvie. I am growing old. Now I am sitting in an office shared with two other nurses in front of a monitor, checking my emails fifty-seven times, calling people’s grandmothers to come in for blood work, tracking down dog-bites and chlamydia, teaching pubescent kids about armpit hair and testosterone, stabbing screaming flailing children for their routine immunizations…8 hours a day, five days a week. Then once in a while I meet someon...

C+G – the northern nomad
https://olvieli.wordpress.com/2015/08/28/cg
Come away with me to a quiet place. Find rest to your soul. A smidge of Olvie. My older sister works as a family physician in a clinic in Scarborough. She says in her clinic, getting positive Chlamydia is like catching the flu. It’s no biggie to her clientele. I work out of a community health clinic on a First Nations reserve. Catching Chlamydia is like catching fish. You catch it at a party, get tested, get treated. No biggie. God has created us to be so unique yet still in His image. A body that is...

Come away with me to a quiet place. Find rest to your soul. A smidge of Olvie. THE jOY OF the LORD is MY sTRENGTH. Sung my car radio. As the little girl I drove past skipped and galloped to the rhythm of my song on her way to school. Ugh It’s monday. I feel it in my bones, eyes, brain. But the JOY of the Lord shall be my strength.
