Now living on island off Canada's west coast. It is very peaceful here.Everything is slower, especially mail.

Good coverage of Iranian protests today on Cdn TV. Few good pics, lots of police. Be safe all.

Egypt-So much courage. I don't think many westerners have ever been faced w/ crises that took true courage. Freedom,democracy vital to life.

News of blast mixed on Cdn. TV. Some say "firecracker", some "homemade bomb", some "handgrenade".

A year already?. So many lives lost not just by death, by fear and repression also. I remain hopeful. I honor, always, your strength.

Maybe, now the conscience of the world will be focused on easing the plight of Gaza. Claims soldiers were being attacked is bizarre.

Mr. A. Einstein of relativity fame said: "Your imagination is your preview of life's coming attractions". Imagine big!

@nchevre May you live to see retribution. I lament your loss.

@persianbanoo Thank you for the English translations. I honor your incredible energy and commitment. Stay safe, be well.

Today is the feast day of KuanYin / Avolaktishara - bodhisatva of compassion in Mahayana Buddhism and available to all.

Happy New Year Iranian Friends ! (a day late)

So little good news on global front. Darkest before dawn?

Trying to off-load stuff in preparation to move to an island and sell house. Much, much work.

@oxfordgirl Indeed. It is time. The plight of the Palestinians is a terrible blight upon the Consciousness of the human family.

CBC reports gov't forces shooting paint balls at protesters so they can be identified and arrested later. Maybe raincoats would help.

Wish I was there to help. My prayers are endless. May we meet one day - the East and the West, the old and the new. G*d Bless.

Western news geared to keep spotlight on Iran this week and next. Be safe.

May the Green Movement in Iran and supporters everywhere endure these dark days.

@persianbanoo who can boast about this, what depraved minds find glory in hanging?

Watched travelogue of Iran. Beautiful country, beautiful people. Best quote: "gov'ts have problems, but peoples do not".
