Living In Saskatchewan (Thoughts)
by Damien Gabrielson on Jun.28, 2009, under Blog
I’m watching Valerie Pringle Has Left The Building’s Saskatchewan episode (#30).
It’s great to remind yourself why you live here once in a while. I love Saskatchewan and it will always be “home” but it’s not the easiest place to live. They were talking about how if you are born on the prairies, it is something that sticks with you throughout life. Maybe thats how it is with every region, but I really relate to that as I have lived a few places very far away from Saskatchewan and I always end up coming back here.
A few days ago I was reading, the now dead, I Hate Saskatchewan blog and I could relate to a few of the points while many points were completely ridiculous, narrow minded, and ignorant.
I don’t want to start a debate about positive and negative aspects of living in Saskatchewan. I just want to acknowledge the fact that as much as I complain about this place sometimes, I still love it, especially the summer.
So for now I will be thankful for my 10 minute commute/50 minute walk to/from work, the clean air, a beautiful house and yard purchased at a great price, a great workplace, being close to my family, and (of course) the summers.
