France

I love it - ever since I was a little girl. It is the country I always though I would be living in ...
loving everything about it. The language, the people, the landscape, les chansons, everything, the colours of the sky, scents of lavender and thyme, the tide coming in, the sand, the market, baguettes, fromage, le vin - ah - la vie en France! - there was a saying "comme Dieu en France" - missing it these days. Even Robert Service ended up in Southern France. I've spent more winters in the Yukon than he ever did and yet, I understand.

And I find myself in Canada - fascinating. English being the Language of the Mind / French being the Language of the Heart. Am I ever so grateful that the Canadians decided to not let go of the Heart, for mind without heart or heart without mind is incomplete and out of balance.

Yes, there is the bigger picture - there always is!
