One of my father’s favorite science fiction writers, Isaac Asimov, once said, “Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It’s the transition that’s troublesome.” Okay – so the guy wasn’t exactly an optimist.

One of my favorite writers John Lennon once sang, “Life is what happens while you’re busy making plans.” True, very true.

However, my current favourite is one by Irish playwright, poet and author Oscar Wilde who said, “Life is far too important a thing ever to talk seriously about.”

I’m all about reflections this spring and the timing seems fitting. We’ve finally pulled together my 2nd Annual Benefit for SickKids Hospital’s Brain Injury Critical Care Research Unit and I’m pleased to invite you to come, donate, dance and celebrate.

The details are above. Toronto’s experimental electronic/pop duo BoyTech will perform and DJ Mensa will be spinning. Generous donations for La Fête à la Tête Deux can also be made directly to SickKids at sickkidsfoundation.com/donate. Contributions over $20 receive tax receipts.

The recent sudden death of actress Natasha Richardson has offered me more opportunity for self examination, gratitute, and appreciation as my own similar experience ending up being a new beginning and in many ways a blessing in disguise.

Thanks guys
