🧩✨ Riddle Me This! A Perplexingly Fun Morning with Connected Communicators Toastmasters ✨🧩

What do riddles and the English language have in common? Both can leave us perplexed—and that was exactly the theme of this week’s meeting led by our lovely Toastmaster of the Day, Shairah! 🤔💭

From witty wordplay to “aha!” moments, we explored how language can both confuse and connect us. Our Word of the Day—Perplexing—popped up in creative ways throughout the meeting!

🎤 Our captivating speakers inspired us:
• Jeremy Gauthier shared his Ice Breaker, “The Two Faces of Addiction,” a powerful and heartfelt story of growth and awareness.
• Bev LeBlanc, DTM enlightened us with “A Visit to the SPA – The Mental Health Retreat You Didn’t Know You Needed,” showing how we can all take better care of our minds.

💬 Table Topics Master Kyle had everyone puzzling over quick-thinking questions that fit the riddle theme perfectly—proving that impromptu speaking can be both fun and brain-twisting!

👏 A round of applause to General Evaluator Anrif and our amazing team behind the scenes:
• Zoom Master: Yunuhen
• Grammarian: Ron
• Ah Counter: Elizabeth
• Timer: Ramata
• Evaluators: Joe, Norma, and Richard

A special shoutout to everyone who joined early, engaged thoughtfully, and helped us create another inspiring morning filled with curiosity and camaraderie! 🌟
