Here’s a video from Amit on what’s going on in Community Support in Kelowna this week:
I came across this in my travels….
…. And thought it would be awesome to share:
1. Be YOU, not them.
2. Do more, expect less.
3. Be positive, not negative.
4. Be the solution, not the problem.
5. Be a starter, not a stopper.
6. Question more, believe less.
7. Be a somebody, never a nobody.
8. Love more, hate less.
9. Give more, take less.
10. See more, look less.
11. Save more, spend less.
12. Listen more, talk less.
13. Walk more, sit less.
14. Read more, watch less.
15. Build more, destroy less.
16. Praise more, criticize less.
17. Clean more, dirty less.
18. Live more, do not just exist.
19. Be the answer, not the question.
20. Be a lover, not a hater.
21. Be a painkiller, not a pain giver.
22. Think more, react less.

Kelowna: Amit’s Update – Community Support for November 5-9, 2018
Here’s a video from Amit on what’s going on in Community Support in Kelowna this week:
Time Change!
Don’t forget about the time change today! It’s “Fall Back” 1 hour. Enjoy the extra sleep!
Great News! Highlights and Halloween
It’s been a fantastic fall at Community Connections – and we thought we’d share some of our favorite highlights from this past month in Community Support to round out all our Community Inclusion month fun!
Roy left everyone full to the brim after feasting on his spectacular bounty of breakfast food – check out the perfect pancakes these guys turned out!
There were a few birthdays, but celebrating Kim’s out to lunch was an extra thrill – everyone managed to keep it a secret that they knew about his birthday until the lunchtime surprise!
With Halloween at the end of the month, everyone’s attention turned to costumes and how to dress up for the occasion – Teri-Kay rocks a royal look, while Jaclynn went all-out as a classic character.
There was also time for getting in a healthy amount of exercise – Graham is almost always smiling, after a kick-butt workout is no exception!
Those who absolutely love walking were treated to wonderful walking weather at the very end of the month!
What a way to spend October! Looking forward to sharing more costume photos from our Facebook page very soon! Stay tuned…
Have a favorite picture of your community? Send it to us with a story about the photo and we will post it on the website!
