Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of SmellyBlog's Canadian readers celebrating this delicious harvest festival
May we all have an easy winter, nourished by these abundant crops we're blessed with. This is not something that should be taken for granted, neither should these corps be taken from someone else. May there be enough food for all of us, to nourish our bodies and souls on this earth.
And as a Haida wisdom tells us (and was passed to me by a friend over Thanksgiving dinner yesterday) - our wealth is measured by what we give of ourselves, not by what we possess.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all of us celebrating Jewish New Year's Eve today.
May this year be a year of peace, above anything else.

P.s. If you have a moment - go read the comment for this photo on Flickr, I really liked it...

Happy Canada Day to all of SmellyBlog's Canadian readers!
Hope you had a fun and a fair weather today to celebrate the special day of our magnificent country. My day, personally, was mostly full of Salsa dancing at Robson Square...
