Hey Average Joe … “You’ve got to get out and walk.” (Jane Jacobs)
Driving down my back alley this evening I saw a guy about my age with a boy a bit younger than my own son.
He was going into his back fenced yard.
He lives about 3 doors down on the opposite side. Looks like he lives in that house … I’ve never seen him before. Seems like a nice family.
I had the chance to be in the audience of a great theatre project at St Stephen’s Church downtown.
It was a simple production about an older woman working with a teenager to practice lines for an upcoming performance. (Queen Lear by Eugene Stickland).
I realized sitting there and being part of this audience, sharing a story, music, and conversation after the show; we all seek a greater connection. Making time to get to arts events is almost always worth it.
With all this, I encourage you to get out and walk. Meet your back ally neighbour and make your community great.
Make May Great.
