I walked into the library on Tuesday night, and much to my surprise you were there! Oh cute red haired library girl, where have you been? Someday I am going to talk to you, someday I will have the courage to tell you how cute your freckles are and how your smile lights up the entire room. And now you have glasses! That just adds to your charm. You had been gone for so long that I stopped looking for you. I had given up. I know now that I will see you again, the question is, will you see me?? —What's a Guy to Do?

I gotta send some love to Tim B for his article on Peter Kelly. Tim, you're leading the parade to get rid of a terrible mayor and we are right there behind you. Keep exposing this idiot for what he is: a corrupt leader who has been in office far too long. Keep doing what you're doing, Halifax (or at least the smart part of Halifax) appreciates your amazing work. —President of the Tim Bousquet Fanclub

I was astounded by your confidence and appreciate what a beautiful gesture that was reaching out to a stranger. I wanted to call and thank you, however I'm currently seeing someone, and the little card with your number seems to have fallen out on my walk home. I hope that someday a move like that is the beginning of something. Don't stop making people's days, it makes the world a nice place to live in. Thank you, really. —Utterly Impressed

It cost me $228 to replace a flat tire on my car. How awful. You made my day a little better though by giving me a free wiper that dearly needed replacing. I know it may not seem like much but the gesture was so appreciated by me! You're so kind, lots of karma for you!! —Eager For My Keys

I am truly touched at the spirit of camaraderie I've been seeing in this city since the start of the strike. In any other city selfishness would have increased but not ol' Halifax! People offering rides for nothing... Overnight ride shares springing up all over the place. Even the local radio station has gotten involved (check out live105 for more info).

I have even heard of food zones springing up here and there for those who cannot make it to the grocery store or food bank.

It is reminiscent of the sense of community that evolved after hurricane Juan (which devastated me so I can recount the kindness I received firsthand). Regular heroes came out of the woodwork without a second thought to help those of us who were left without food or a home, who had flooded or had lost essential items. Looks like that attitude of neighbourly concern hasn't changed one bit.

And to top it all off, seeing the jaunty strolls and packs of (new?) friends strolling over the bridge, the numbers rivaling the Spring Garden Road strolling district and how happily and healthily they were handling their fate made me weep a little.

We are a resilient city. We are an opportunistic city. We are a city with a fucking awesome attitude.

Atta'girl Halifax! It's why I'm proud to call you home. —A Fellow Walker

I love you so much and thought I would send a little note to tell you so on Valentine's day. Love you so much and you make me so happy. Happy Valentine's day. —Babe
