One Sweet World: Part Two
| January 5, 2012 | Posted by Jenny Ann Fraser under One Sweet World |
At the end of September, I wrote a post from a newly claimed “portable” and temporary office in the woods 5 minutes walk from where I live. I shared this office with those who came before. Birds, some ducks and 3 deer. What I didn’t write… …continue reading.
A Different Take On The Occupy Movement

A good friend sent me an email last week with this photo attached. The subject heading said: “A Different Take On The Occupy Movement” When it comes to the numerous issues we are facing at what I believe is going to prove a defining point in the history of mankind, what saddens me the most… …continue reading.
Why We Need To Work Together
| October 24, 2011 | Posted by Jenny Ann Fraser under One Sweet World |
On a typical workday morning, I get up, feed my cat, shower, brush my teeth, have breakfast, get dressed, pack up what I need for the day. I don’t usually leave the house without my phone, my stainless steel water bottle, coffee mug and of course my purse. Most weekdays, I head directly from work… …continue reading.
What To Do With a Beautiful Day?
| September 28, 2011 | Posted by Jenny Ann Fraser under Feast..., One Sweet World |
The last days of summer are always something to be cherished. I’m not sure I could find many who would disagree with that or, maybe I would. In this day and age, as I have mentioned before, it seems to have become socially uncacceptable not to be ridiculously busy. And life is really busy. I… …continue reading.

For a what seems like a long period in my life, I tried not dreaming as a way to prevent disappointment. I am pretty darned grateful to have discovered that not dreaming, is not really living at all.

This has turned into one of those puzzles that I love to roll around in my head, but the solutions seem to evade me. The issue is one of connecting… …continue reading.
Why We Should Look For Beauty
| April 14, 2011 | Posted by Jenny Ann Fraser under One Sweet World, Working Towards a Better World |
As I mentioned in my book review of A View From The Back Pew, I recently had an opportunity to visit Las Vegas. This was a work related trip, as Vegas would not exactly be my first choice of places to go. I am not a great traveller. I don’t mind flying itself, but the… …continue reading.
One Sweet World
| April 4, 2011 | Posted by Jenny Ann Fraser under Feast..., One Sweet World |
Often, while other Winnipeggers are safely snuggled in their homes, avoiding winter, I will have piled on layers and layers of clothing and headed out into the cold air for a long walk along my favourite frozen river. I describe going outside into bitter sub-zero temperatures as similar to diving into a cold lake. It… …continue reading.
