Default 25 years in

Landed in Barrie in 88 a 23 year old on his own from Falkirk Scotland. The only thing that bothers me is when I think to myself "what if I hadn't taken the chance at coming to Canada".

Congrats on your quarter century!

Do you feel assimilated yet?

Yes Shuggy I'm assuming that Congratulations are in order, and that you have decided you like it!

The what if's are what makes life so very exciting I think...I met my husband on a Libyan bus, and I often wonder what would have happened if I hadn't?

Do you think Canada is your forever home? Do you think of it as home now?
