I was walking home from work yesterday and from the corner of my eye, I saw something so small yet they had such a profound effect on me! I had to take a picture and share it with you all. 5 simple little tulip sprouts is a sure sign of spring and all of the beauty that comes with it!
Take a little time to appreciate even the simplest of things in life.
Lots of Love

The Canadian AIDS Society (CAS) has announced that The 2011 People Living with HIV/AIDS Forum and the Canadian AIDS Society AGM will be held May 30 – June 2, 2011 at the Delta Hotel in Ottawa. Scholarship application forms are now available on their website. Scholarships cover all or any part of costs such as travel, accommodations,meals and registration fees depending on the need of each individual applying for said scholarships. Scholarships applications are due by February 18th, 2011.
Registered as a charity since 1988, the Canadian AIDS Society (CAS) is a national coalition of over 120 community-based AIDS organizations across Canada. CAS is dedicated to strengthening the response to HIV/AIDS across all sectors of society, and to enriching the lives of people and communities living with HIV/AIDS.
The Persons Living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHIV/AIDS) Committee of CAS believes that PLWHIV/AIDS must participate in creating the vision for their future. The PLWHIV/AIDS Forum (Forum), open to all PLWHIV/AIDS, is an excellent opportunity to network with other people living with HIV and AIDS from across Canada, to set priorities for the community-based AIDS movement, and to participate in the general business of the Canadian AIDS Society. The Forum is an opportunity to share information, discuss new ideas, contribute to policy development and renew acquaintances. The Forum is open to all PLWHIV/AIDS, including those who are not affiliated with a member agency of the Canadian AIDS Society.
My first time at the CAS Forum was 4 years ago and the friendships, knowledge and connections that I have received from this event are priceless! This is also the ONLY National event that is solely FOR persons living with HIV/AIDS that is organized strictly by people living with HIV/AIDS. I encourage you all to come and take part!!
Live Love and Laugh LOTS!!

30 years after the first cases of HIV were reported and we are still facing many of the same challenges as then. We, as humans, cannot become and continue to be complacent! We need to continue to have our voices heard by the powers-that-be! We need to continue to educate people. TALK TALK TALK! I was diagnosed 6.5 years ago….. My name is Rick Johnston and I AM greater than HIV!!
Live Love and Laugh peeps! TALK TALK TALK!!!

As 2010 draws to a close, I find myself being reflective of the amazing year that has just passed. It was a year of accomplishment, appreciation and admiration. I received my degree; something that I thought was not going to happen at several times over the past 6 years. I am thankful of all that I have been given as far as knowledge, kindness and love again over the past 12 months and I have been blessed with another 525600 minutes full of memories with some new and some not-so-new chosen family members.
I am looking so forward to seeing what 2011 has in store for me!!
Live LARGE everyone!

Oh Screw Love. As If Erick Johnston Wouldn't Prefer The Beach.
ONE GREAT THING – A GayGuideGiftGuide: What I love giving as well as receiving especially at Christmas time is very inexpensive yet very valuable, and something that is cherished by all who receive it. This simple gift is the gift of LOVE! 100% pure unconditional love is what I give. It doesn’t ever expire, it never gets old and it always comes in abundance.
