How patient are you behind the wheel?

Posted in , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

When I speak with people about my job as a driving instructor with Young Drivers of Canada they often say they aren’t patient enough to teach someone how to drive. I guess my demeanor is regularly calm enough to do this. I am a patient person by nature. I guess you would have to be…

Being a parent has so many responsibilities that I can’t even begin to list them all. One of the things that remain at the top of our list is ensuring that our kids are safe. I personally know how I feel when one of my kids injures themselves. No parent would really want to purposely…

I’m a big supporter of my community and saving our environment. I will walk or ride my bike when I can and I also plan my trips so I can avoid wasting fuel, time and money. I look for ways to do that every day. However, when I see a waste that also affects many…

We all need your help

Let’s face it; we all need help every now and then. For some people, they know this but fail to ask others to help them. Is it pride? Is it laziness? Is it because they don’t fell there’s anyone capable enough to help them? Who knows, but if they need the help, why don’t they…

Time will tell…

Is this parking lot rage?

Peer pressure…how well do you handle it?

Posted in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

I’ve been around kids regularly ever since I’ve been a kid. Some people would even say I’m still a kid. I’m hoping that’s a good thing. I also have a habit of watching people. I like to see how people in general cooperate and interact with others around them. To some people, they seem to…
