Announcing Our New Early Learning Center at Signal Hill Library!
Started diving into the Franklin Expedition resources only few days ago... I think the main point about ignoring oral histories in the past might have been not the position of wrecks, but how they got there - possible re-boarding and the entire timeline (if the encounter with starving group of 40-odd people happened as described, would fit the aftermath of Terror sinking described in said histories) and possibly the cause of deaths overall... Interesting video.
Very enlightening.
Very much wanted to enjoy this, but (sorry to be self-elected linguistics constable) by the first couple minutes the expert referred to a route as a "rout", I couldn't put up with it! Route rhymes with shoot; rout rhymes with shout/bout/tout/lout...
I visit E23 in its new home at Fish Creek Library occasionally and relive the memory of its early days. Love the scenarios they use to encourage play, especially the "fire" at the popcorn factory. Great use of numbers for addresses, too.
I liked the characterization of mysticism as the "attentive gaze upon the highest principle"
A mystic is not irrational; she is trans-rational. Mystical intuition shines brightly in the depths of human experience where rational thinking is denied access. Can a lover rationally understand and describe the blissful union with his beloved? Can a mother rationally understand and describe the joy of caressing her newborn?
If you're on someone else's land, and acknowledge such, why are you still there?
All non-Natives are colonizers.
👍🏻
This should really be titled something like "Mysticism and Christianity" or "What is Christian Mysticism?" as it focuses on mysticism solely from a Christian subject, which I was very disappointed by. Given the tremendous diversity and complexity of mysticism, it seems a disservice to only give attention to one tradition's interpretation of it.
I'm planning to see E23 in its new home. 🎉 I wish E23 all the best for the children and families who come to explore literacy in a fun way and take home valuable safety tips.
It was great until the ads started playing in the middle

Thank you.
Franklin was just not up to it and the men knowing this mutinied at some point, hence the high officer casualties compared to other ratings. Obviously, they formed into two groups.
I wonder if due consideration has been given to Gulf Stream like currents carrying warmer water from Southern waters North and skirting the Beringia coastline. Beyond facilitating an ice free coastline for land trek, if said current circulated in a clockwise manner maritime travel would be ideal.

Thank you for all your hard work making our city a wonderful place to learn and live!
Commercials ruined it for me. Otherwise such a lovely meditation really lovely
Excellent author and speaker!
There’s just too much guidance. I wanted to stay quite for a while but there’s nothing longer than 5 seconds of pause between your words. Instead of calming down, I was getting carried away in thoughts from one to another so quickly.
When the men left the ships in April,1848, they headed south. It was croziers and Fitzsimmons decision to make it to the Back Fish River by walking out. They were dragging the boats on sleds and some provisions. It was very hard for the crews. They wore wool clothing. Malnutrition had set in . Their gums were bleeding. Cannabilism had occurred. They sweated a lot dragging the boats. The elements of the weather was difficult. The men died on their way south. As they became weak and tired, they succumbed to their deaths. Just a terrible expedition that went bad.
So awesome to find this link at our local playground posted by Calgary Public Library. Very proud of this like this in our community!
excellent! great pause to put us in the present moment !
That was great, thank you.
Wow, you guys really love rubbing it in their faces, acknowledging for the world to know that you know it's their, but don't care. lol me either
Fantastic video. Public libraries are such a valuable service to people.
Yet the CPS love to think of me as a criminal and do as they please, even if documented... Surprised how little the Canadian Charter of Right and Freedoms is not even to be known to exist to most people of Canada. Would be a great census question; Otherwise great video, and like any other divisions in the world, we need to get together here locally, sadly many many generations were lost, but it is never to late, even if will probably not see it in my generation..
Can't do the mid-meditation ads.
Thank you for sharing
I remember Engine 23 @ the old Central. In some ways, I thought of it as the Beacon" Library," shining a ray of hope and learning to all who entered. Beat of luck at Fish Creek. 🎉
The Mystic of the 21st Century will be dissimilar from all previous Mystics.
Very powerful for me. Especially after a full sleep. 🎉❤
Lost me with the ads. Downvote
are you touching it?

Rosanna listening to your June 9th Indispired! I love listening to all your shows as I miss First Nations amazing strengths, warm hearts, beautiful people and that’s despite the hell imposed from my ancestors, homesteading grandparents in Colten Bushie’s homeland of North Battleford. I worked alongside with Babine Lake Nation, GITZXAN-Wet’suwet’en, then with Haida youth & adults supporting Residential school survivors and all women fleeing violence. The Nuu Chah Nulth in Uclueth -Ahousaht- Hesquit tribes in the nation with remoteness underlined. I gained so many gifts for my heart for I was an abused & neglected child, with no teachings except school lessons. I’ve often thought it’d be cool to initiate a fund raising project to help girls to make their Regalia with protocol learned along the way to obtaining permission to use the crest and regalia colours, perhaps design too, I don’t know. Where to start? Perhaps BC FIRST NATIONS CHIEFS org could help me when I contact them. Oh then you mention this award … I’ve reset a former client who survived a horrific rape and public nudity ! I want to help support her stunning recovery sober for over a yr now. I’m thinking of writing her story within a small group of these FN Thrivers who deserve so much & many rewards to give back. I couldn’t feel more blissed out for her that she found her way out of the internalized hells of colonialism, Residential/Concentration Labour prisons and adult life of bare survival shrouded in alcohol, that’s Whiteman , PREISTS Nuns pushed & promoted over the last 155 yrs. Big love to you Rosanna and all of your guests.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a great video to encourage reading. The infectious smile of the adult male with the kids would encourage anyone to pick up a book and enjoy!
Thank you for watching! We hope to see you participating in the challenge 🥰
This video is 100% useless with ads 🤬
Ads in the middle of this startled me 😂😂 was not expecting a loud voice to chime in
woah! That was amazing! I cried and I felt hope...kudos to all who risked the frontline to give us services...I LOVE the Library!
Who talks bad of his collegues, talks bad of himself.
The adverts in the middle of the meditation really ruined it for me :-(
Yea that was some bs
Yeaaaaaah
Wow that was a very nice meditation session. You just gained a new subscriber. ❤
