1.You can learn something useful from anyone.
Schools would have you believe that teaching
comes from those who know to those who do not know.

But just like a broken watch will tell the time accurately at least two times per day
so too does the stupidest person on the planet have the potential to provide a brilliant
insight even if this insight is so wrong it makes you realise what is right.

So the next time you write someone off as being stupid, or not educated enough
or beneath you, think again and consider
that there is a diamond buried underneath that lump of coal.

2. If quality slips, it really doesn’t matter how good your ideas were.
In school they teach you abstracts, ideas and how to get them on paper
and leave quality control to

Where else can you live in two worlds at the same time.
One a thriving cultural and entertainment metropolitan large city,
and the other hiking and biking trails so full of nature’s bounty
that even the sounds of the city cannot penetrate into their private sanctuaries
Why Edmonton of course.

There are more than 160 kilometres of trail and 460 parks to choose from.

Here are a few of them

the trail will take you

Most people don’t give much thought to where their garbage goes once it’s in the trash.

The city has been giving it lots of thought.
