If you're 90 on your deathbed and you get to go back and relive 1 memory before perishing, playing catch with your 4 yr old would be more appealing than sitting alone with coffee. So when your 4 yo asks to play catch, just say to yourself you're 90, you went back in time for this

Coffee shops should have a separate line for those of us who just want black coffee.

In honor of Bob Saget and Norm Macdonald I want to share the funniest thing I’ve seen in years. Amazing chemistry. RIP two legends.

Do not use your energy to worry. Life is too short to worry about stupid things.  Have fun. Fall in love. Regret nothing and do not let people bring you down.  Study, think, create and grow. Teach yourself and teach others.  —Professor Richard Feynman

When I watch this stuff it brings a lot of tears. The same occurs when I see greatness at the Olympics. It sounds goofy, but I deeply feel the joy of human progress.

You want to embrace negative experiences, limitations, and even pain as the perfect means of building your skill levels and sharpening your sense of purpose.

When you veer from valuing truth, over time you will only be capable of having relationships with those who are in lockstep with your views. Ultimately, you will consign yourself to having friendships based upon adherence to dogma and the chronic mutual need to convince yourselves that holding certain beliefs is a virtue.

Surrounded by distinguished guests, it was an honour to celebrate our 75th anniversary at the @CanWarMuseum. We have a proud history of supporting the @CanadianForces and our allies worldwide. To cap the evening we were thrilled to offer a $75K donation to @tplfoundation in support of @InvictusGames25. Guests were treated to an oil and vinegar set from veteran Mike George’s small business Aurelius Food Co. It was truly a night to remember. #GDMSCpeople #GDMSCevents #SocialValues
