Thursday’s lenten observation from St Andrew Memorial Anglican Church was to walk, bike, car pool or bus. This was a hard one for me. Mostly cause I am a commuter. I live in one city and work in another. So to help accomplish the lenten challenge I drove to work, but bussed and walked to all my appointments.

What I experienced was people. I talked to a few random strangers at the bus stop, nodded hello to dozens of people on the street and had genuine human contact. I should do this more often…get out of the car and meet my neighbours.
