Tim's Tip of the Day

It is most likely that each of us least understand the concept of time. Certainly we can see it pass, mark its passing, recollect and speculate but where we go wrong most often is making preparations for the past and thinking we know what is to come in the future. Temporal awareness means that you understand what is, what was and await what will be.

Ensign Notes

No doubt regular readers of Ensign realise that the editorial comment is that of the contributors and not of the publication as a whole. One of the reasons Ensign carries political stories at all is that we believe in free speech and Canada's newspapers no longer provide the kind of discusion that we need to consider in a free and open society.
