Ah, to be able to park it in a chair, on a beach, with a cool drink. This is what it is all about, the ability to once in a while just to relax. Just ask MLA Jagrup Brar. He went down to Cuba for a vacation. Good on you Mr Brar, I am glad you were able to put your feet up for a bit. While you were down there, you had a look around and saw some things that were working for the people of Cuba. That is what being a tourist is all about, going out to see somewhere else and learn a little about where you went.
Mr Brah then showed his true colours. He came back and told others some of the things he had witnessed, sharing his experience with others. For shame, sharing good things with your friends, family and community. But why is this such a bad thing? I seem to recall that in kindergarten I was taught it was good to share, sharing is a good thing, heck, that is what we are all about here in Canada. We all share a bit to make life a bit easier for us all.
Apparently the sharing that Mr Brar did has exposed his true evil self. Mr Brar is a communist, and worse yet, so is the entire NDP party here in British Columbia. What an amazing deduction, I never knew that sharing your experiences with others made you a communist. I am truly thankful that I have Bill Bennet to protect me from the evil sharing of Mr Brar. I will know in the future to see the great communist threat behind anyone who is going to share bit of knowledge with me.
Remember, to share is to be a communist. Thank you Bill Bennet for sharing that information with me. Oh, wait a minute, now Bill Bennet is sharing. OH GOD! He must be a communist as well, him and his entire Liberal Party of BC. Who can I turn to for the truth? Who will protect me from the evils of sharing?
Anyone with a thought they wish to share?
And now for something new
I have set up a new blog that will be only my poetry
Please come have a look and enjoy

Give a Little Bit
"See the man with the lonely eyes
Take his hand, you'll be surprised"
A wonderful song by Supertramp, one that gives me pause to reflect on the years that have past
In the world of today, it seems that the overriding thought is "More is better" You turn on your TV and are constantly bombarded by adds saying you aren't thin enough, wealthy enough, smart enough, virile enough or even worthy of notice. We get to see the Snookies of the world, the Paris Hilton and enough people look at them as if they are what we need to aspire to become.
When was the last time you went shopping for groceries and thought "Hey, someone took the time to grow this for me. That is a person who should be stroked for their contribution to the world"
The builders who are out there, the healers, the person who ensures that the little old lady gets across the street safely (yes, Boy Scouts are still out there), these are the people we need to look up to. The people who give a little of their selves to help another person. When I say a little, really that is all it takes. Hold a door open for a mother with both here hands full of energetic children. That 30 seconds of yourself you give can make the world of difference for that mother, and what did it cost you?
BIGGER, FASTER, BETTER....YOU MUST BE THIS, OR HAVE THIS OR YOU ARE NOT WORTHY.
You don't need to be the biggest, or the fastest, or the shiniest. You do not need to measure up to what is being thrown at you. What you do need is yourself. And when you give a little of yourself, you get back far more than you give.
Try it
Give a little bit
And be surprised
