Our Svaha Spirit Series is meant to be Inspirational. I love music and was inspired while watching Annie Lennox’s video ‘Sing’. To quote directly from her website SING, “When people get together to sing, they become encouraged and inspired.” Isn’t that true!

Vancouver’s very own Robson Street was hit by imagine1day’s official ‘Dancing in the Street’ flashmob on Saturday!

There has been a lot of turmoil in our world lately, but it’s still important to stop what you’re doing and take a break from your daily grind. Whether you call a friend, sip on a warm cup of herbal tea, take the dog for a walk or paint, it’s a great way to get [...]

I was unable to watch the telethon for Haiti on Friday night but I was told by some friends about the highlights and the moving stories told by the celebrity participants.

ABC News is reporting that the Susan G. Komen foundation noticed a 2000% increase in traffic to its website over the weekend, all thanks to that facebook message that was sent to women by women instructing them to post their bra colour as their status update.

“The Cove” Taiji, Japan

I just watched “The Cove” and I can’t keep this one to myself. If you want to use your voice to contribute to a cause that is trying to make a difference in the world you need to see this movie. But be warned some of the content is disturbing. I don’t understand how [...]

Small Ritual Coffee Society is Here!

November 9th, 2009 · 1 Comment · Charities/Cause, Inspiring, Jacquie's Posts

I drink coffee. Every day. Twice a day often. I love nothing better than to sit at my desk with a homemade cappuccino, answer emails and sort out my thoughts for the day. I always write in the mornings with a large mug precariously close to my mouse pad and flailing fingers, and I rarely [...]

Taking a Tara Time Out

October 1st, 2009 · 5 Comments · Charities/Cause, Jacquie's Posts

I had so much I wanted to get off my chest today, but part of the personal growth I’ve been experiencing through Tara Cronica is learning when to hold back and rethink my position. Sometimes, no matter how right I think I am, it’s better to hold your tongue, or your fingers in this case.
I’m [...]

I got another notice in my email recently that one of the loans I’d made through Kiva had been repaid in full. This meant that I now had another $25 sitting in my Kiva account ready to be loaned out again to another entrepreneur somewhere in the world. Rather than let it sit there, I [...]

I was flipping through a local paper yesterday morning reading the headlines, looking at the pictures when I came across a great article.

Water that is…well wine too but that’s another post.
I drink a lot of water. Water for my morning tea every day, a glass of water with my lunch and even if I am drinking wine with my dinner I am also drinking water with it too. I keep a glass or bottle of water handy [...]

This weekend I was chatting with a girlfriend and she mentioned that her son was going to be playing in a ball tournament in San Diego this summer. There was a cost attached and she was going to make him responsible for part of the fundraising starting with a bottle drive. It made me think [...]
