It's not easy being green
05.05.09 (11:37 am)   [edit]

And it's not easy to let go of negativity that gets thrown your way.

I guess posting about it would be re-living it, so I don't really want to do that.

I just had a lengthy conversation with one of my team members. I feel a connection with him, and I admire his strength. He left his country and came to Canada to study. He left behind a life as he knew it. I couldn't imagine jetting off to a country where I knew nobody, knew nothing about the culture or the language to grow. I admire my parents for having done the same thing.

I am happy we met.

I think you should pack up and move to Borneo!

Try to ignore all negativity thrown at you and continue to be positive as you always are rosie.

I also admire anyone who leaves familiarity of culture, family and friends to go to a 'different world' as it is ~ I am not strong enough to do that myself. The bravest thing I did was to move across state to marry my husband ~ so you see what that says for me! :)

Kermit the frog said, "It's not easy being green!" ~ and he was right!!!

I try hard Ladyg! It's so much better to shine with positivity and share that instead of offering clouds of doom and gloom!

Would baby seal be better roasted or stir fried?

We can try various ways, then maybe put out a baby seal cook book.

A baby seal cook book is a great idea!! We can talk about everything from the harvesting to suitable garnishes.

If we can get Oprah to promote it we'll be rich.
