Just stay from the big cities if you ever come to Canada, April G!

or else arrange to meet someone in the big cities. i really don't think that many people in the big cities are mean or heartless - but i think many of them just don't really think about making new friends because, well, because they already have their group of friends (most probably from kindergarten, even).

I have to agree with you, Jim! BTW, I am not meaning to make generalizations against the big city people. I'm sure there are some very nice people who live in the big cities. I think it's just that many big city people have had their group of friends from kindergarten - so many seem to have forgotten how to make friends. So that's why newcomers tend to feel out of place. Rural people are generally more welcoming of newcomers.

I think you make a good point. Also, it's not as peaceful in the big cities as it is in the countryside - so it's really not any wonder that the big city people tend to be more cynical and less friendly and less relaxed.

Beautiful points ladies. The music S/G writes goes hand and hand with that too, I find.

I don't quite live in the countryside - but I do live in a smaller city, which isn't anything like Toronto. I also live very close to the outskirts of town, so I do live somewhat close to the countryside.
Peace out.

I live in a somewhat rural area, but not so rural that our neighbours live so far down the street. We are still pretty close to each other, but we live near a lake and a river. It's definitely more rural than urban, though. We have a strawberry patch and a raspberry patch in our yard - along with a patio and a swingset.

That's almost like the area where Renee and I live. Renee's family lives right across the street from ours, actually. Also, our roads tend to be gravelled rather than paved - and we have no sidewalks. We always hang up windchimes on our porch door during the warmer months, and we also put out those things that turn in the wind. It's really nice in our area.
