settling into Canada again

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Vancouver, 2001.05.24

Here are some familiar things I've re-discovered since I've returned to Canada:

-People wearing sneakers

-Crowded shopping malls and restaurants the smell of temperate N. American flowers

-the many 'homeless' folks on the streets

-hotdog vendors

-no little sushi bars

Try not to become a man of success but rather to become a man of value. He is considered successful in our day who gets more out of life than he puts in. But a man of value will give more than he receives.

—Albert Einstein
