Canada – bebee-haven

The land of honey and words…

This all started with the 4th of July and a feature on some of the USA writers / bloggers who inspire me on their  blogging sites  and bebee.com

It was the beginning of a thought, a mini light-bulb glowed. I’m always thinking about how I can share great stories which inspire, by those who are brave and willing to write.

After much thought and some planning, I do think there are quite a few places I can visit through the authors of wonderful words. Join with me as I journey with some friends and have a buzzing time with their honey! There are quite a few hot and sweet links in this post, so here is a challenge – if you can get to all just post in comments the number of links I’ve added, with a smiley face. You win, when you have gotten the gold hidden within!

Jim Murray – I’ve had the pleasure of speaking with Jim about a week ago via Skype and it was amazing. Imagine, just having a chat, face to face, with someone who has a wealth of knowledge in the advertising and media business from Canada. This man is a genius with words, and has a sense of humor. He is also quite charming and dashing in a gentlemanly way, reminds me of the guys in the books I’ve read many years ago. Jim is always willing to share advice and can explain and encourage in a simple and relatable way. He has a personal blog  Onwords&Upwords and that’s like a treasure chest!  Jim is also an Ambassador for bebee.com  and if anyone can give winning pointers on growing a social media platform, he is dude! Some selections from his honey jar:

The Fine Art Of Coaching Yourself – Self Satisfaction.
The Unbearable Lightness of Bee-ing. One Writer’s Experience In The World of The Golden Hives.
I Think About God

Paul ‘Pablo’ Croubalian – Paul is a tech wizard even though he claims not to be! This Canadian is great with social media gadgets and he can break anything down into a simple recipe of words. He is also a real chef, and can write recipes, understanding which ingredients work well together. On social media he seems to get all the tech ingredients together and has the recipe to get something to work – if you follow his advice! Before I forget, this man is funny, he has a hilarious sense of humor which is seen in the titles of his posts and the images!  Paul is also an Ambassador for bebee.com so you know he has got the honey production on full throttle! A few selections from his honey jar:

How to Avoid the Consequences of Social War
Getting Started on beBee: The Big – Assed List
Dessert in a Hurry: Easy Pastry Cream for Jardinière.

Cory Galbraith – Cory is a philosopher of historical and modern day life. His articles are rich and vibrant and filled with past actions and living with a present day vibe. Cory shares advice based on the lives of others to help inspire us and keep us motivated. Cory has his personal blog Cory Galbraith and is also posting on bebee.com/@cory-galbraith My selections from his honey jar:

How to lead a Jazzy Life from the Late Great Miles Davis
Plato’s 6 Rules of Leadership for Today’s World
How to Take Control of Your Career According to Mozart

John Whitehead – I’ve been following John for just over a year and I like his way of sharing advice on business and life. I have not spoken to him yet, but he is one of the bloggers I seek out when I’m looking for a business read. He has a personal website and consultancy at John K. Whitehead & Associates  John also posts on bebee.com

Two Ears and One Mouth.
Our actions are a reflection of who we are.
Leadership is… Building Leaders

These guys are just a few from my Canadian posse  as we would say in Trini lingo. They are all creative and I yearn to pack my bags and go on a vacation in Canada. It also helps that Canada has the best head of state in the whole wide world, well next to President Obama, and he is out going!
Hope you enjoy the posts selected, and will check out their websites and bebee.com  These guys are the real deal in my book . Canada is a very happy place and these guys prove it with their words!

I am a mom, daughter, friend, businesswoman, lover of people, lover of places, lover of life, lover of God. Dwordslayer is who I am when I write, because I’m a lover of words and sharing their meaning. Thank you for reading and hope you will share with someone. Words can increase in value as they are shared – we may never know who may need the meaning, so lets give!

Special selections  for today:

Let's Talk... A Love That Lasts

The courage to carry “To have a love that lasts forever, is to truly understand vows and commitment” (Eversley,2016) In all of my forty six years of life  I have waited for the commitment of true love. To really believe that there are people in this world who can cherish and care for another romantically has become a faded dream. A dream which has been archived into the fantasy part of my mental library. The love stories of long marriages  which are not abusive or filled with indiscretions seem ancient. The new lifestyle sets a pathway to divorces which have become their own academy awards on film. Acceptance of prenuptial agreements and exit clauses are now necessary when thinking of love – whether in a celebrity career or leading a nondescript livelihood. To this end I did weep when I read  from a friend and learned of his devotion, marriage and love for his wife. Let’s be real, and understand this is a true ongoing story of endurance, commitment, passion fo...

Reflections - Value Each Day!

Putting a value on time .. I’ve never been able to figure weekends out. I love Mondays. In fact give me everyday of the week and I love them. I love the days because there are so many opportunities and things  which are waiting for my discovery! Each day brings something new. For me it may be the same job status, the same car, the same family, the same 24 hours- what makes it different is me. The challenges never change, but my attitude does. I must change to go after my dreams, desires, to fulfill my purpose. I might look the same on the outside, but quite a lot is happening on the inside. I’m dreaming! There is a plan for something more to happen, then it happens unexpectedly and I’m ready! While waiting I’m there seeking out, creating, and finding each day different. Reflection: Enjoy each day Pause, wait, look around and smell the scent of the present you are in. I smell the salt in the sea wherever I am when I pause. That’s my moment of joy. Facing the sun, with t...

A Canopy of Grace

Photo Credits: unsplash.com/Thom Milkovic   Drop your canopy O Lord, let it fall on the earth. Let it pick up all the people who are suffering and hurt. Let your canopy be big enough, that everyone can fit, Lord please I beg you, allow everyone to see it. Drop your canopy on the ground O Lord, Because some people cannot look up high For these are the people who love you, and without it may surely die. Drop your canopy dear Lord, for the little children to see Especially, the ones who are impoverished and living in poverty Drop your biggest canopy dear God on the earth Let it be enough, like a berth awaiting vessels to sail A mooring prepared with glorious flair, just waiting For the people to get there. Drop it, just drop it on the earth Drop it because you care. Please let your canopy fall dear Lord, because not everyone can see Let the ones who need it most dear Lord, be covered by its safety. Drop your canopy my Lord and Savior, drop it on the...
