The Globe and Mail reports that Canadians on average leave three days of vacation every year unused. It is a shame because vacations help us recharge our batteries and feel refreshed. Even if we can’t afford to go to exotic locales, we should take a short trip to a nearby resort area and just be with family. The column also suggests that we should leave work behind while on vacation.

Note: Our thoughts and prayers are with Londoners affected by today’s callous, barbaric and cowardly terrorist attacks.
