Hockey has been a big part of my life. My whole life. Well since I was seven years old. I didn't even want to play hockey. But over time I began to love It so much. I still play hockey on a team called the Chiselers with a bunch of my best friends. Some who I have known since I was five years old (Braedon). The beauty of hockey Is that It Is a group of brothers who all have each others backs. In this case, In and out of hockey. Boys who grew Into men, seemingly overnight. I e

This one Is about my brother and mentor. Pieter. Pieter Lambooy - a long time director and once even a VP at the Workers' Compensation Board of Alberta. He has never not had my back. He showed me how to be a leader. He leads with confidence and vulnerability when the time calls. He showed me more than how to be a leader at work. He has taught me how to be a leader outside of work. He taught me how to be a leader outside of work. I love Pieter. He won't play squash with me - y

This Is one Is going to be tough. (I ugly cried the entire time) This one Is about my best friend, Toby Sivers. My boop. Some would say the boopiest boop to ever boop (bold claim I know). Toby passed away - but he has never left my side. He guides me every single day. He speaks to me through music. There are three especially significant songs that help me spell out three significant points In time between me and. Toby. The first Is a song called "Push These Blues Away" by Ash

home - It all started at 139 Woodstock that Is where I'm from - Edmonton, Alberta my best friend dane says he's stuck In Edmonton but he's slow. I had one home before this but my parents separated when I was 2. My pops name Is Wes Sivers and mY moms name Is Brenda (Mein). We had a pooch name Muffie. These were the days when people called on people meaning they went to the door and actually rang the doorbell to see If their friend was home to play. We played a lot of street ho

In the last little while I have had a really hard time finding out where I am. I know that doesn't make a lot of sense. Some might call It brain fog - I call It the Universe protecting and guiding me everywhere I go. For the first time in my life during this past Christmas break I experienced brain fog. That's not true. Rewind. I have probably experienced my entire life but there was no label for It. Anyways. I couldn't remember where my keys were. I left them places. I give

I weigh things. Sometimes I lose. i won today tho. I went to japan. In tokyo they sell raw horse sashimi. In a vending machine 😔 Danielle Smith Is a cunt 🖕 and sends Alberta born and bred horses to japan as livestock. The disrespect of the amazing creatures that are horses being sold In vending machines.

The wailing. I have wailed before. I can say though right now I haven't made a mistake yet. not today. Other than In a drawing to dane. dirty bitch ass To whoever Is reading this: You are Important. You always were and you always will be. You are. I AM spiritual. I once was told a story about a lady who find God after having to shit In the tub for a year. Drinking Is no fun. back to the wailing. This was a movie I watched today. It was so good. somtimes I have to pause and as

I have you, you have me, honey.' Another brother to me Is ReggieV. he has taught me so much. Just watching him. He Is the calmest human being to ever exist. This Is a man who responds and does not react. I met reggie fifteen years ago or so. he Is a consultant. I admire that. aka he's a business, man. He has never not shown up. He knows I have his back until the end of time.

this one Is about my best friend and brother, Dane. I love dane more than anything In this world. to Infinity and beyond. He has never once not shown up for me. Now I make the commitment to do the exact same thing because there were times when I didn't. I didnt put my best foot first. now I do. I'm unc to his twin daughters Remy bear and RUth (not ginsberg). His wife kate I just as amazing as him. They deserve each other.

I made another mistake today. I didn't call my mom when I needed a hand. mY mom Is always there for me. So Is my dad. They have both shown me unconditional love. From day 1 until now. I am everywhere I go - so I need to BE okay with that. And I am NOW. I used to ride motorcycles on the street and In dirtbike trails. I'm gOING to do that again. And I cannot wait. My dad taught me how to ride motorcyles. he will forever be my teacher. He used to ride motorcyles where west edmon

I'm Taylor and I make mistakes. But I'm okay with that. I Interpret mistakes as guidance from the Universe showing me what I should or should not be doing. I made a mistake yesterday, and I bet I will make another mistake today. I'm human and so are you (I assume). Why not give some leeway? I want to be perfect - but I know I never will be - with that understanding comes peace. I'm trying to respond Instead of react going forward. Does that resonate with you? In particular I
