About this blog

In Toronto, there is a nightly news magazine called T.O. Night aimed at the commuter crowd. One of the
features that it contains is a section called Shout Out where readers can send a short message, rant, note...
to someone, or to anyone...

I started sending Shout Outs to the woman that I am in love with. Not all of them are published in
T.O. Night - and once the magazine is tossed, so too is the shout out...

Here are most of the shout outs that I have submitted - and some of my other writings to
The Lady on the Train...

In an alternate universe...

Angel,

You are incredibly beautiful. I wish that I could explain to you how your presence fills me such that I feel I am more than I am. I have been incredibly lucky and I have been incredibly stupid. I cannot change the past and I cannot foresee the future and so I try to let go of regrets and worries; to accept the moments I have today and to appreciate them. Even so I cannot help but take comfort in the impossible hope that there may exist a time and place, in some alternate universe, where I am a better man and fully share my life with you and our children. I imagine in this other world you find your greatest joys and passions. You find your true strength and fight your fears. You grow from your triumphs and your fears. And at no time do you doubt that you are loved beyond the world and back. I take hope that you may find these things in this universe and know how incredibly wonderful you are.

Just me.
