A good reason.

I wonder about the world sometimes, all the effort that is put into trying to get ahead, is it ever in vain? Or if there is a purpose in all the madness?

What Viktor Frankl talked about in Man's Search for Meaning. The idea that a person's story and the meaning in it, is the best way to try to solve their problems.

I guess there are equal amounts of good and bad in the world, it is an age-old struggle between the forces of good and bad. It is like each person has to wage war on their own personal demons.

What can we say for certain about the world? Well we know a fair bit, and it is increasingly becoming easier to access that information.

To me the clubhouse movement is about recognizing that people despite their issues and challenges deserve to be recognized as human beings with intelligence and heart. When I went to Worcester to train at Genesis House, the notion of Radical Equality was talked about. One becomes very gentle when you realize that everyone is facing a struggle and has a hard battle to fight.

Anyway, I made a delicious tofu curry today and it was scrumptious. I had a couple games of Yahtzees with my neighbor Giuseppe. He scored two Yahtzees in the first game, and I scored two Yahtzees in the second game.

I also researched about things to do while I am in Burnaby with my daughter.
