She's Called Nova Scotia....

I do not come to you with an upbeat post or story of a fun adventure today.  Today I just wanted to get a post in to pay respects to a great Canadian Woman.... a Nova Scotian, a "Cape Bretoner", Ms. Rita MacNeil.



Her work and her lyrics were deeply touching, and after receiving her first Juno award at the age of 42, she has led me to believe you are never to old to go for your dream and to never give up.  Growing up in Nova Scotia, there is no way you have never heard of her, especially her song, "She's Called Nova Scotia", a song I find to be very honest, very touching, very inspiring and calm, all things I strive to be, and will remember every time I hear it play.

There is so much more I could say, but I'd rather not go searching the internet and just drop facts on you, I just wanted to share my feelings, show my respect and share it with you my followers.   If you have never heard of Ms. Rita MacNeil please visit her website at www.ritamacneil.com. Also, I found this slide show on youtube that was put together with photos from Nova Scotia and put to her song:



May you Rest In Peace Dear Lady.
