Ottawa's deadly winter

Can weather really be that big a factor in making me question how much longer I can stay in Ottawa? I think it may just be the perception of warmth and sunshine that has me thinking this way but really when you're walking outside in -25 degrees Celsius and all you can think about is getting indoors, its hard not want to chase the sun....oh palm trees, maybe I was one of you in my past life???

Just Another Day

Impatience, anger, frustration all resonate with me on a daily basis. How do I rid myself of these feelings. It's as though they just brew inside me from the moment I wake up. Is this really who I am or are these emotions trying to tell me I'm off balance and I need to find my way back to calmness and contentment??
I'm hoping my work with MDO (Mood Disorders Ottawa) and YLC (yourlifecounts.org) will tip the scale back to balance:)

A New Me?

Has my short trip to India provided me with some insight I didn't expect to receive? I definitely feel more relaxed and clear headed and the world does seem a bit more positive than when I left. I think experiencing the essence of India has me rethinking and revaluing a lot in my life as well as my innate trait of being cynical. I'm done being so negative about every aspect about my life. I need a change, I need more sunlight in my thoughts:)
