That Night – Uncommon Sense
https://rayznblog.wordpress.com/2016/01/01/that-night
January 1, 2016. Oh Fleeting Moment- Stay. Christmas and New Years bring expectation. In our minds, we expect things to go a certain way, people to act in a certain manner, family to do what we expect, food to present and taste a certain way and most importantly, we expect to FEEL a certain way. When even ONE piece is out of place, well, we are blinded to even the most positive moments. Think for a moment about your favourite way to relax on your own. How do you enjoy your alone time? THAT NIGHT is only ...

December 2015 – Uncommon Sense
https://rayznblog.wordpress.com/2015/12
Making the obvious more obvious. Oh Fleeting Moment- Stay. Writing, for me, is about self-expression. It is a way to organize the loud and occasionally obnoxious thought-noise in my brain. It is how I sort through the feelings, emotions and instincts that otherwise would be cloudy and overshadowed by the to do lists, day to day drama and the chaos that is daily life. I was sure I was out of my comfort zone with this venture and was soon proven correct. Ironically, many of us have learned not to trust our...

Smile Power – Uncommon Sense
https://rayznblog.wordpress.com/2015/11/25/smile-power/comment-page-1
November 25, 2015. November 26, 2015. Oh Fleeting Moment- Stay. Surprises can be good, bad, or just downright ugly. I have yet to decide if I like surprises or if they are just something I have come to expect, tolerate and strive endlessly to prepare for. The irony is that I almost always fail to be prepared when the surprise inevitably comes. I laugh at myself constantly. The more consumed I become with life and it’s to do lists, the more mistakes I make… .and silly ones too! Bring on the surprises!

Rayzn – Uncommon Sense
https://rayznblog.wordpress.com/author/rayzns
Making the obvious more obvious. Oh Fleeting Moment- Stay. Week after week I would experience the same scenario on the same bus route on my way to my part time job. At one point I became uncomfortable with being uncomfortable. I hated that I was so uneasy and judgemental. I hated being afraid. I didn’t even know what I was afraid of! No one could even begin to imagine what it was like on my very first day, sitting in a classroom waiting for the group of students to arrive. I was incredibly anxious! I had...

Unselfishly Selfish – Uncommon Sense
https://rayznblog.wordpress.com/2015/11/20/unselfishly-selfish/comment-page-1
November 20, 2015. November 26, 2015. Oh Fleeting Moment- Stay. A few years back, I sat in the driver’s seat of my car and told my young daughter that the most unselfish acts in the world are essentially selfish ones. She gave me a look then that would make you giggle. “Oh Mama”, she said, “you make my brain hurt! Happiness is not as complicated as it seems. Really it isn’t! If, I told her, we do things for others because we feel good, then why not do even more? Why should we care? Someone gets paid to c...

What If – Uncommon Sense
https://rayznblog.wordpress.com/2016/01/13/what-if
January 13, 2016. Oh Fleeting Moment- Stay. Week after week I would experience the same scenario on the same bus route on my way to my part time job. At one point I became uncomfortable with being uncomfortable. I hated that I was so uneasy and judgemental. I hated being afraid. I didn’t even know what I was afraid of! I decided conquer my fears and to immerse myself in a special needs group for the summer. I took a job as a camp counsellor teaching life skills to special needs teenagers. I had one girl ...

Orca Coaching and Consulting. Meetings – Community Table. December 12, 2013. Community meetings are a totally different creature than staff, team or member driven meetings. For the purposes of this blog the meetings I am addressing are Community Table meetings. By that I mean meetings that occur on a regular basis and centered around an issue. For example a table around issues facing the Early Years for Children or a group exploring Watershed Protection. Along with the vision come values. The values ...
