Many of us aspire to be creative in one form or another but we carry within us hindrances to either doing our work or releasing it out into the world. At times we may believe we're not good enough, that our work lacks meaning, isn't perfected, or we don't have enough talent and imagination to acheive what we desire. It may be that we fear criticism, failure and rejection, or perhaps resistant to change and success. Ultimately, the thoughts we think and the beliefs we hold, are what's holding us …

Back in the day when I was studying graph theory, my favourite mathematical problem was the friendship theorem. The goal was to prove that at a party of six people there are either three mutual acquaintances or three mutual strangers. Toronto is a big city to many but somehow no matter where I go, I bump into acquaintances, and along the way I make new friends. Despite my passion for mathematical proofs, I strongly believe that a party of six is the perfect party size. Let's meet strangers and a …
