The CN Tower can be seen from most locations in Toronto- east and west. From the northern regions it stands out as a beacon. It gives us a sense of direction. South on Lake Ontario. A landmark! A place to visit! Pride for those workers that helped to build it! Life has many landmarks for us. In our lives, most of us have something that helps to give us direction- family, faith, profession, friendship- alone or together as a whole. We need a beacon. A reference point to keep going! So no matter which way we look there is a symbol to anchor us. Belonging to a social group, a culture, blending with other cultures or standing alone! Knowing who we are! And feeling good about it! As the CN Tower can be a structure in the GTA, what anchors you? What is your landmark or beacon? What keeps you grounded? Is it a symbolic landmark or real?
