Aww I miss the local bakery - les croissants aux beurres, aux amandes with newspapers from the Libraire and a huge mug of coffee on Sundays! I lived in Ixelles, Brussels twice over my career and many other countries over 18 relocations. There is a special place in my heart for France, Belgium and Switzerland though...
All to say, I loved this article because you're 'voicing' a philosophy of community and caring for people, which is at the heart of my Carer Mentor mission.
I love all of this. I need these reminders. Thank you!
Thanks for reading!I often write as a way to remind myself.😊
Me too! I have to fight the more, more, more voice which as you said comes up even in getting rid of things - I must get rid of more… 🤦🏽♀️

Thanks! Yes, I was born in Uccle. My bakery was in the U.S. where I realized I was recreating my childhood culture.😊
Thanks! I truly believe that building community can change our neighborhoods, towns, world.❤️
I love this!! I wish more businesses would do the same - prioritizing max profits a little less and increasing community value a little more.
