Art is everywhere!








I have my own rules, so street art comes on Sunday. Don’t ask me why. It’s just the way it is. Some rules are made to be broken. And this one is one of them. I couldn’t wait! The week has been long and exhausting. I was counting the minutes to get home. Literally. And then… I saw it!
A huge wall painted with colourful flowers and fearless animals. Who could have guessed? In a parking lot. Yes, in the garden supply store car park. And I don’t even have a house with a garden. I live in an apartment with a tiny little balcony. I presume my eyes (well, my left eye) was meant to see this beauty just before the week ends.
I must thank my son because every Friday he goes to kayak and I pick him up before the sun sets. Usually, the meeting place is…

Dom Quixote
Still remember reading Cervantes’ story in Spanish – magic.
” Sonha o sonho impossível,
Sofre a angústia implacável,
Pisa onde os bravos não ousam,
Repara o mal irreparável,
Ama um amor casto à distância,
Enfrenta o inimigo invencível,
Tentar quando as forças se esvaem,
Alcança a estrela inatingível:
Essa é a minha busca.”
Dom Quixote.

Listen…to the story
Truth and reconciliation comes when the abuser or oppressor faces the abused or oppressed and answers the questions of those who were abused or oppressed. That was the process in South Africa.
Many tragic stories were told yesterday, the first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation in the land called Canada. Although rooted in tragedy, it felt like the time has come to begin to bring these stories into the light. A sense of relief, in a way, that these deeply buried traumas are being told. Yet also triggering grief as these memories are revisited. Telling and listening to these stories are the truth part of truth and reconciliation.
People can be transformed by being open and human. We believe that people have a need to be heard, but how they are heard really matters – if they take the risk of telling their story, it needs to make a difference.

Losing 15 percent of your bodyweight may be the best treatment for diabetes – Study Finds (Me: worked for me – 20 years diabetes free)
Study authors find that a drop in bodyweight of 15 percent should become the primary focus for patients dealing with type 2 diabetes (T2D). They add significant weight loss shows the potential to slow or even reverse the condition in many cases. Weight loss also cuts down on the medical complications which can stem from having diabetes while being overweight.
“We propose that for most patients with type 2 diabetes without cardiovascular disease, the main treatment focus should be managing the key underlying abnormality and driver of the disease: obesity,” says paper co-author Dr. Ildiko Lingvay from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in a media release.

California health workers without COVID vaccine may be fired – Los Angeles Times
the number of holdouts seems to represent a small fraction of the Golden State’s approximately 2.4 million healthcare workers.
The holdouts nevertheless represent a significant test for employers and public health officials grappling with how to apply the state’s new requirements, including how to ensure compliance from a vast network of health facilities.
Some hospitals said they plan to fire workers Friday; others are starting with suspensions. Most said they plan to offer grace periods to employees who change their minds. Several said they expected the state to give understaffed hospitals hit hard by the Delta variant a 45-day extension to allow administrators to make alternate staffing plans.
