Can Kayak Rules Keep You Successfully On Top? 3 success principles for work and play
My brother, Emil, is a genius as well as being an exceptionally talented kayak paddler. Since one of my goals this summer was to learn how to pilot a kayak, it made sense to ask Emil for his help. Picture this: A sunny, warm day on Crimson Lake in West-central Alberta. There were six student kayakers, bobbing like corks on the waves, eager to hear the words of direction and wisdom from the master of the craft. Emil’s first three phrases are indelibly imprinted in my mind, with immense life implications for you and me.

Aren’t Gardens And Relationships The Same?
Yahoo, it’s spring! It’s a great time to focus on the garden – and relationships. They are the same, aren’t they? Imagine this… As the grass began to grow, I knew it was time to connect with nature and get our garden ready for another productive year. It was fun to work in the garden that sunny day.

Rhubarb Romance: A Little Honey Works Wonders
Spring is in the air. It is a time of new life. There are green grass, kittens, puppies, and rhubarb. Rhubarb? The darned stuff is the first thing to show up in the garden. For those of you who don’t know about rhubarb, it grows from a huge root-ball under the soil. A mass of stalks shoot through the soil – each topped with a leaf the size of an elephant’s ear. OK, a small elephant’s ear, but the leaf is big. The stalks are red near the ground, greener toward the leaf, and they grow to be the diameter of a coffee cup and as long as a tall person’s leg.

Steps For Absolute Honesty – Honestly
Definition of Honest: truthful; trustworthy; genuine; open Soooo, are you an honest person? Your response is likely, “Yes.” However, if we look deeper in our lives, we may find our response is not totally true. And if we are really honest with ourselves, we may find that our lack of honesty can lead to devastating results in our relationships. This became clear to us on our recent trip to the Caribbean. We met and saw many couples who seemed to have fabulous relationships. They laughed, teased, played, and seemed totally in love.

How To Avoid Communication Breakdown – Is It About Horn-use?
There were horns blaring, tires screeching, and fingers waving in the air from several drivers I could see. From the expressions on their faces, I don’t think the middle-finger wave was to say, “You’re number one!” Luckily no one was physically hurt. But I’m guessing there was stress, anger, and emotional pain felt by the people directly involved, and by others who were close-by. This incident was in Edmonton, Alberta.

As we approached our destination, we chatted about our expectations of how the landscape would look, based upon our memories. We tend to expect it will be the same as we’ve experienced it before, which creates a familiar feeling. But it was different. Each time we go there, we see more houses in the countryside and expansion in the towns. The growth is not necessarily right or wrong, it is just different.

Do Different Perspectives Affect Relationships?
Carol said, “At the Showcase, we can buy some Christmas presents.” “We’ll see,” I said. “If there is something we can use, OK. Otherwise, let’s not buy stuff.” Those two small, seemingly insignificant statements led to a 40 minute conversation of clarification, and much deeper understanding betwee Carol and me.
