Family first
Keep in touch with friends
You are not your job
Know when to leave
Drink water
Eat less sugar
Exercise daily
Don't respond to negativity
Fight against entitlement
Forgive first
Be kind
Tip well
Be humble
Don't nitpick
Learn to learn
Laugh loudly
Write more
Be honest

Hey #Canada!🇨🇦

When you win, be kind.
When you are ignored, be kind.
When you are stuck, be kind.
When you are upset, be kind.
When disappointed, be kind.
When you are in doubt, be kind.
When you are scared, be kind.

Being kind is not a sign of weakness. Kindness will always serve you well.

I blocked over 800 people in the past 72 hours. Friends of these people have DMd me and begged me to re-instate them. I blocked them too. RUDENESS will not be tolerated on my account, and there will be no warnings. If anyone wants to be instantly blocked, then, please. Be rude.

Your feet allowed our voices to be heard today.

Domestic Violence is more than a woman’s issue, it is not just an agency issue and it is more than a community issues – it is OUR issue.

You raised over $42,000 to support families in their fight to live free from violence.
