In case some of you thought that I was too busy to write yesterday and yes that was part of the problem; I did manage a letter to the editor. Imagine my pleasure when I got home from a lovely Easter Sunday dinner with friends and listened to the phone message from the letter to the editor department wanting to verify that I had sent a letter. This will be my second letter to the editor in the Toronto Star, successful both times.
I have discovered that it feels good to have your opinion recognized and approved by people who are not your friends. Your friends are kind and respect your opinions and sometimes even praise them without being as critical as national papers or even local papers- I have managed to have some letter printed in community papers as well.
Must get out my papers and read; hopefully I will find something worthy of
comment.The difficult part about this, is that I must have some knowledge about the topic that I am commenting on. My first topic was trees and their maintenance in Toronto and this time it is heritage properties and the OMB. Will let you know when it gets published.

Congratulations! You should feel very proud. We only get the Star on Sat. and Sun., so I hope that your letter is published on the weekend.
