In my city there has been a rash of magical fairies and generous ninjas! If there is anything that the world wide pandemic has shown is the kindness of humanity. Between family bringing food to those who are high risk, to messages of hope, to this newest trend – neighbours secretly dropping off care packages and running away because it’s not about the thank you, it’s about the act of service, the act of kindness.
That said, I want to say thank you anyway – thank you to everyone reminding us all and demonstrating every day that there is kindness and love and good people in the world. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
And on top of it all – thank you to my original porch fairy, Danielle. You have made the last 2 months so much better than anyone could imagine. Thank you, thank you!
Originally intended to simply focus on book reviews, over time, KaliDesautelsReads has morphed into its own entity.
I write about issues that are near to my heart, be they political, feminist, motherhood, mental health, or, as the title holds, books.
A thirty-something Canadian woman in my mid-thirties, I have been "super married" to my high school sweetheart since 2006, and together we have two crazy, clever, kind, hilarious, wonderful kids.
My first book - How Not To Blog: Finding Myself, One Post at a Time is available on Amazon (in eBook formats for you clever tech readers, and paperback for those of us who love that new book smell!)
I have tried a podcast - it's still on Apple and Google Podcasts - but writing is where my heart is.
My life changed dramatically when my husband was diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer in 2018, and I am now a writer for a leading Canadian Cancer Non-Profit.
I am lucky enough to have a family that loves me and pushes me to be my best, even if it is outside of my cushiony comfort zone. I have a village of friends that nourish me, mentally, and spiritually.
Welcome to my thoughts. Sit down. Stay a while. Enjoy a cup of coffee!
