You were part of the reason I had to leave. That being said, I find you on my mind more than I'd care to admit. We had something; whether it was actually a good thing is doubtful, but it was ours. Perhaps you'll find our tin cans with the very long string. —M

I just want you all to know how lucky you are to be in Halifax this summer. I've been gone for three months now, and while filling the Best Of noticed that I haven't been there for any festivals, new resto openings, or numerous other events. This is such a special place and you all make it fantastic, I miss this place every day. Breathe deep on the waterfront and get a slice of 'za for me won't ya! —Salt Air Deficient BOY

We had to be done. Hell, we'd never even been single as adults. I need to find the me I want to be, not fulfill the me you thought I was. I love you still, I always will. No choice my dude. Someday if you can love me for me, I'll love you for you. I'm not waiting, but I can't bear to rule it out. If it's not meant to be, then that's that. —Screw “should”

Thank you to the beautiful young woman who did the guerilla piano tuning at the Public Gardens. That was incredibly cool to watch. I think my kid was more impressed by that than any galleon we saw in the sailboat parade! You made our day. —A pair of music lovers

I'm not sure what I've gotten myself into and I'm not sure you are either! I would say I wouldn't change a thing but of course that isn't true. I would magic you next to me if I could. You can clap your hands over your eyes and blush all you want, it doesn't change the fact that you are the sweetest man/moose I've ever met and my days wouldn't be the same without you. XO. —Your Bear

You walked to my cashier station with a cell phone glued to your face while you conversed with some one: You told the phone, "Sorry, gotta go—I’m at the cash and need to think.  Call you back in 10 minutes.” I LOVE YOU! Hope you thought I gave you my best service ever, and cheerfully so, because I surely tried to make your experience as good as the thoughtful way you handled your phone call before you expected to be served. Thank you so much. —So happy not to have to interrupt your call to ask for payment

To the wonderful paramedic who paid my way when my transfer ran out thank you so much.  You all do so much and it showed with your kindness. —Extremely Grateful
