Congratulations – we did it!!! Fierce Light is held over in Vancouver and Montreal, and expands to two screens in Toronto Friday! Thanks to all of you who've played a part in Fierce Light having an outstanding first weekend!
Now we need to build momentum, and prove to the cynics out there that a film about hope, compassion, and possibility is needed in this time of crisis. Let's crash the gates of the gatekeepers!
"Nonviolence means avoiding not only external physical violence but also internal violence of spirit. You not only refuse to shoot a man, but you refuse to hate him."
-Martin Luther King

There have been peace rallyes all over the world for decades, but so far all of them had been locally restricted to a certain geographical region and / or for a specific ethnical or religious issue in question....
But what is the name of the most popular and unique GLOBAL peace rallye in the world with 1.000.000 members in only 5 years?
Here is the "Who-wants-to-be-a-Millionaire?" final question... ;-))
Ok as most of you know me I am always pumped up, full of energy and on cloud nine the majority of the time. I love to embrace life with the most positive and amazing attitude and embrace everything to its full potential and experience. However; sometimes I get sad, real sad and I want all of you to know that it is ok to be sad sometimes.
Sadness is just another feeling. A feeling that we should embrace, let in, feel, analyze and then… Continue

Music has been an essential part of my life since the end of the 80s.
The adventure began during the second of my four years of studying electrical engineering at Université Laval in Québec City. Through various friends and contacts I reconnected with progressive rock, a form of music to which I had already been exposed to in my youth thanks to my older brothers and sisters. Hearing the music of bands such as Yes, Rush, Genesis, and King… Continue

To heal from the inside out is the key. ~Wynonna Judd
I have spent the past few days not feeling well. When I woke up this morning the feeling persisted. It got me thinking about healing and what it means to get sick. According to Louise Hay, every physical illness we manifest is linked to a mental or emotional condition in which we are limiting ourselves or holding ourselves back. I think there is a lot of truth to her philosophy.
If we let go of what our plans are, we allow what is. ~ Pilar Stella
This quote came to me this morning when I woke up. So many of us plan our lives away. I know I have always been a planner - until recently (and I still do it, but less and less). That is, I am beginning to truly allow what is and honor what the universe presents to me more and more every day. It is quite an amazing, and different, way for me to live.
Yet, I am finding more of the magic and mystery… Continue

When asked about the hippy days, Chris Bettini the talented maille artist behind IkowDesigns: said ‘I was 3 years old in '72, but my mom tells me I was all out the hippies. She said I used to go around doing the peace sign and saying "two peaces (pieces)".’
Wayne Elkin, a self described aging hippy posted a picture of a peace sign on a barn in Marin. In the past two days, I have received e mails on the Department of Peace and an… Continue

Even if you cannot control what happens to you, you are ultimately in charge of how you choose to respond. ~ Unknown
This is so simple yet true. We may not be in control of what happens to us and the world around us, but we definitely have the ability to choose how we respond. I know for me this is not always easy to remember (I'm a stubborn Aquarian after all ;). Yet, I am beginning to see that as I allow what comes to come and I choose to respond in peaceful, joyful and… Continue
Through the last few months of my life I have learned so much. I guess you could use the widely used term that I have “awakened” or in other terms I have begun to remember what life is, what it is about and that everything is life is about the experience and what an amazing experience it has been.
As some of you may know from my previous writings life wasn’t easy for Shayne. I have been through many tribulations and through these tribulations have come my greatest triumphs. The… Continue
