Too often, we don't tell people what they mean to us until it's too late. So Maclean's is publishing a series of essays, by everyday Canadians, about the people they love. Here's how to submit yours.
: Simu Liu with his parents. : Teacher Meaghan Thompson with her Grade 6 “classroom family” at St. Margaret’s School in Victoria. : Gord Downie.
Too often in our lives, we come face to face with regret, and often about things that are said—or left unsaid—to the people we love the most. There can be a fear, too—whether it’s because of something as fundamental as death, or as flimsy as societal beliefs about how vulnerable people ought to be—that those loved ones might not ever have a chance to hear what we have to say.
So far, our essays have included Evan Solomon on his family and the new ways they tell each other they love each other; elementary-school teacher Meaghan Thompson’s paean to the students who have passed through her classroom; Chinese-Canadian actor Simu Liu offering hard-earned gratitude to his immigrant parents; Laura Millar offering thanks to her oldest friend for a simple act of kindness from 40 years ago; and author Kelly S.
If you’d like to contribute your essay or letter to our series, please send it to [email protected].
