@rachbar Noticing that McDonald’s was both saltier AND sweeter was a surprise. But the Special K red berries was a next level betrayal. It’s one thing to eat here on vacation, but after a couple months in the US, my body is very glad to be returning to Canada this week 👍
Indian Act. Chinese Head Tax. Legalized slavery for years. Africville. Japanese internment camps. Sixties Scoop. Komagata Maru. Order-in-Council P.C. 1324 aka the ban on Black immigration, 1911. Residential Schools. State execution of Louis Riel. Oka. Carding. MMIWG2S.....

Question: what's something people should avoid saying to your enneagram #? As an 8, when I get passionate about what I am saying, I never find it funny when someone says "well...tell us how your REALLY feel!" It feels hurtful & dismissive but I feel pressured to laugh anyhow.
Gmorning
from the space you need
to love, to fail, to try things out, to rage, to apologize, to goof around,
to grow up no matter your age, to breathe
Gmorning from the rehearsal room of your life
Let’s go again
