Those who know Bambi well might recall how much she loves Haiti. Indeed, she honours this country not only in her heart (or some house decoration), but also in her posts.
Hours before January 12, she pauses with Haiti and Canada (fellow citizens of Haitian heritage; Canada’s army, air force and navy staff who rushed to help) to remember the devastating 2010 earthquake. The latter affected about three million people, namely almost one-third of the countryâs total population (https://shorturl.at/o8MU6)! Tragically, about 300,000 lost their lives, according to official count (https://shorturl.at/o8MU6). May everyone’s memory be eternal.
On a personal note, Bambi is thinking of her friends in Toronto, Montreal, and the Maritimes who are of Haitian origins or who like Haiti. More specifically, she is praying for you Smith and Jean (et al.), along with your beloved angel in heaven đ. May your loving hearts keep being filled with faith, inner peace, and hope (“espĂ©rance” “en piles en piles“).
This post cannot be concluded without a fond thought for Michael, along with his peers, for the inspiring generosity, if he happens to be reading. Two additional thoughts go to: (1) all the kind cab drivers Bambi had encountered while living in Montreal; and (2) the inspiring Canadian artists she appreciates (some are prematurely in heaven like the uniquely talented Ms. MĂ©lanie Reynauld, shown below).
May Haiti see brighter days. Enough of disaster after disaster, and not just naturally.
