Guest column: Bring back the Land of Gracious Living

Candy wrapping paper, beer cans, and empty vodka bottles can also be thrown away. A mountain of dog excreta usually on a sidewalk causes danger of eyes and walking. A cute and distinct horse fence sometimes graffiti or gets broken, and the missing part becomes unsightly.

Walking over the dog, the local horse and the green belt, you will be greeted with these annoying images everyday.

26 years ago my husband and I moved to Yorba Linda from Placencia nearby. It was attracted to the surrounding plaza and clean and unspoilt natural place. A quarter of a century ago, Jobalinda was indeed a symbol of "the country of a merciful life." I am worried that the number of residents who regard our city as an individual garbage can increase today.

Degradation of communities and cities is a slow process that tends to be overlooked until reaching certain important points. Well then it may be too late to overturn this mean tendency.

Well, today it is not too late if all residents have personal responsibility for regaining grace. When a dog walker picks up his pet's garbage, when spending time to talk with his children about the importance of parents proud of their neighbors, if the neighbors sometimes unite, "control, I We can create ripple effects that can be spread throughout the city. "

Like many cities, Yorba Linda faces a budgetary challenge of maintaining normal green zones and racetracks. Probably residents can help here. We often read groups that clean up public beaches on weekends or remove graffiti from blocks that are not their own. Perhaps there are opportunities to make a citizen group "correct it and clean it" and they can do the same in our city. It is worth discussing

At least, let us work in the direct field. We can certainly make such a promise. So, in the next 10 or 20 years, our children and grandchildren will still be inhabited when they are looking for a clean and lush space and a new home with plenty of walking and game space !

When you (researcher) is a guest, the "gentle master" rule applies as well. Friendly guests arrive on time (slow fashion rules do not apply to this!), And are flexible and kind, thankful and polite. Whenever I am not in my hometown, I think that I am a customer, but I can express the whole relationship between the customer and the owner in an interesting way. This means I am a host or a guest. This is a very interesting situation. Fortunately, I learned that I can use it. For each of my research participants, I pointed out how strange that two of us are in the house of another. I like to look for similarities between those types. They will help build trust quickly

At dinner, the dinner service obligation is not the guest but the owner. A modern and elegant owner asks guests about food allergies and preferences. A nationwide, contemporary and elegant food system should do the same for long and recent settlers. This shows a tremendous advance in the government's progress in fair treatment of all multicultural groups in Canada and food regulation as human rights. The agent is a part of our human nature and happiness, so it is a human being. Not to serve other purposes

So please go back to my first Rosh Hashanah and Barbara. As a guest from the bottom of my heart, I asked her "What should I bring?" She said "vegetarian side dishes." I looked for Roche Hashana recipe online. And it is sensitive to labor and time. The recipe is an interesting, cold salad, perfect for Florida, but when I say that I have to eat a car, I know I am destined to fail. I am a girl with a food processor. I am a good cook and I make mousse of average lasagna and chocolate, but the whole idea of ​​cutting small pieces of carrots is not attractive and threatens me.
