One discovers the light in darkness, that is what darkness is for; but everything in our lives depends on how we bear the light. James Baldwin #Baldwin #sundaysentence #February2022 #february #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackLivesMatter #writerscommunity #WritingCommunity #writingprompt

When we compare this convoy to other protests I think it's important to keep in mind that this one is making people who are already unsafe in our society even more unsafe. That's one of the (many) differences.

These are challenging times & we are happy to return to indoor dining on Tues night at 4 pm. We will be serving dinner this week Tues to Sat. We will continue to offer takeaway and curbside pick-up. We are open for lunch this week Tuesday to Saturday at 11:30 am. #farmtotable

We're excited to announce that Eldon House will be reopening to the public on February 3! The museum will be open from 12:00-5:00, last entry at 4:45. Masks and proof of vaccination are required. #ExploreLondon #LdnOnt

In the book Out of the Blue, @WriterWong writes about her own experience with workplace depression, an insurance company that attempted to disprove her illness, and her road to recovery. Thank you to Jan & everyone who shares their experiences to this critical discourse.

Thanks, Peter. It's in its third printing. Available from Goose Lane or direct from me (free shipping) janwong.ca

Donate to local mental health organizations who need it more and don’t buy into this “1 day a year” act of “kindness” from this notoriously greedy company. #Bellletsreallytalk

Don’t hold back being kind because you’re afraid that kindness is weakness and that others will take advantage. Give yourself permission to be kind to others - and to yourself! #KindnessMatters #LDNONT

#todayspoem Thank you@TomSnarsky O how I needed this today!

A huge congratulations to Brian Meehan on this tremendous accomplishment. 👏 Tourism London is proud to work alongside yourself and @MuseumLondon!

You may have heard rumours that browsing and lounging are not welcome behaviours at our shop. Here is a considerate book lover, lounging discreetly in our window seat, enjoying her time while there is no lineup, and reading for as long as she likes. Be kind to each other, kids.

Picked up some delicious fish & chips from Archie’s Seafood at their pickup window. Let’s show some love and support to #LdnOnt restaurants and businesses, especially now. #ShopLocal
