Last night had a little bonding session with Dad. He ordered us some jerk chicken from our fave neighbourhood Caribbean place (seriously, if you’re in Toronto check out Cool Runnings, Main&Danforth), and we put on Easy Rider (1969, Dennis Hopper & Peter Fonda). To be very honest I almost never watch movies anymore. Maybe I’m […]
I Like Big Goals A while back I got “into” goal setting. Seemed like a great idea, set big, lofty, audacious goals. Problem? I would set all sorts of ridiculous goals that made no sense and were rather difficult. Result? I’d usually miss a day, or never start at all. Then I tell myself “it’s […]

The Dreams When all your life you’ve been told how amazing and wonderful you are, and how you’re going to change the world and everything you touch is going to turn to gold… How do you handle that moment when you wake up and realize how utterly insignificant you are? When you realize you […]
