From Balwant Sanghera's Desk For the past few years, around Christmas time my family collectively plans a short family vacation. It is a great opportunity for all members of the family to be to-gather and spend a few days enjoying the scenery and each others company. Last Christmas, we had a wonderful time in Hawaii. My grandchildren enjoyed swimming in the ocean close to our hotel while the adults had a great time sightseeing and shopping. Hawaii is rightly called the Heaven on Earth. The weather was great- warm and cozy. This year we decided to go to Phoenix, Arizona for a week.

Harbakhash Singh Virk (May 10, 1940-January 7, 2024) Master Harbakhash Singh Virk was born on May 10, 1940 in village Dangian, Tehsil Jagraon, District Ludhiana to his loving parents, Jeeta Singh and Parmasar Kaur. He was the youngest of eight children. He began his education journey at a primary school in Kaunke Kala village where he learned four languages: English, Punjabi, Hindi, and Urdu. Harbakhash Singh finished his studies from Khalsa School in Chuar Chak village. At the age of 21, he completed JBT (teacher training) from Moga and began working as a primary school teacher. Harbakhash Singh was the first teacher of his village. After dedicating 35 years to the education sector, Harbakhash Singh retired in 1995 as the Head Master of a primary school in Gurusar Kaunke. Harbakhash Singh was a hard-working and inspiring mentor who guided many of his students and colleagues in pursuing their educational goals, including his own children. At the time when men were encouraged to study and women instructed to work in the kitchen, Harbakhash Singh had a different perspective for his daughters. When asked why he enrolled his daughters into school, he stated, “Teaching a son means teaching one person, but teaching a daughter means teaching the entire family. When she has her own family, she will encourage her children to get educated as well.” In 1995, Harbakhash Singh immigrated to Canada and helped his family members settle in the new country. During his lifetime, Harbakhash Singh lived a Gursikhi life as an Amritdhari Sikh with high standards and ethics. He committed to selfless service and volunteered many hours working for the community. He was described as a family-centered individual who was stern, but also had a great sense of humor. Spotting him biking around the city was a common sight, a practice he had continued since his time in India. On January 7, 2024, Harbakhash Singh passed away peacefully at his residence surrounded by his family. Our Bappuji’s wisdom, kindness, and cherished memories will continue to echo through the generations of his six children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Harbakhash Singh’s funeral will take place at Fraser River Funeral Home (2061 Riverside Road, Abbotsford, BC V2S 6A5) on January 13, 2024 at 9:15 AM.

Don’t be too quick to drop plans you might have put in place for the future. Finances might have something to do with this but there might be other ways to work this out. Whatever decisions you think might need to make now can go through quite some modification and become finalised from mid January to early February.
You could begin to get a better idea of future plans that can be made involving somebody else. Look upon this as a first stage though. The most important thing is the agreement. Things could slow down up to Christmas that could lead to changes. A final solid result can develop from mid January through to early February.
Someone else could decide it is time to take a new direction that involves them avoiding responsibility in some way, which could disappoint you. While they might present themselves as flexible, underneath it all, they can be rather rebellious in a subtle, yet definite manner. They could express their thoughts more openly between Christmas and mid January.
You can very much enjoy catching up with someone from the past this week. You could also bump into people you haven’t seen in a while up to early January. Be cautious when it comes to promising to take on certain chores. You could be landed with a lot more than you expected. If this does happen, don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself.
You could feel driven to get jobs you have been intending to do out of the way resulting in an underlying sense of self satisfaction. This would also be a good time to organise final details with family relating to Christmas or into the New Year. They need to know that you will not appreciate being landed with things at the last minute.
Don’t be made to feel guilty about any new directions you wish to take related to the family when it comes to Christmas. This will more likely be about making things simpler. This is unlikely to bother younger ones. When it comes to having a break, it might be best to plan this from mid January until early February so that things run smoothly.
You could find some novel ways to save money by utilising things from the past – this could be changing long held habit patterns related to Christmas. Don’t feel as though you need to do more work than is necessary. If other people expect this, let them get more involved and take on some of the responsibility. Be determined to enjoy Christmas to New Year.
Be prepared to discuss what you would like because people probably find you hard to read. You could decide new directions need to be taken when it comes to spending on things that don’t really matter. Point this out. This could be met with a degree of rebellion but in the end, what you decide will stand. These things have to be done at times.
The New Moon this week falls into your sign, heralding new beginnings of some description when it comes to things that involve you personally. It could be changes you want to make about yourself. You may not be able to get a clear picture until Mercury, the planet of thought and decision making moves back into your sign from Christmas to mid January.
There could be much to review and think over from now to Christmas. Past matters could come up for reassessment as well. Hold off on final decision making because there are new directions building up in the background that are not fully recognisable yet. Catching up with friends you haven’t seen in a while can be most enjoyable.
Find time to yourself this week to gather your thoughts, particularly when it comes to any obligations you have committed yourself to, even though they are something to look forward to. New things could begin to become a priority for you now. It would be better to catch up with friends between Christmas and mid January when you can be more relaxed.
What you need to manage could seem overwhelming right now. This can be about taking a new path when it comes to commitments you need to handle that cannot be avoided, as much as you might like to. Focus on important priorities to generate more balance in the long term. What you decide now could take a steady path to completion mid January to early February.

Jasdeep Aujla (founder)
jsdIp aOjlf (sMsQfpk) FIRM BACKGROUND ALG Lawyers was founded by Jasdeep Aujla. ALG established its roots in Abbotsford and now provides legal services and has lawyers across the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley, with offices in Surrey and Vancouver. Jas has been acknowledged and has the distinction of being the first South Asian from the city of Abbotsford to play CIS football at UBC. On account of pioneering that achievement, he continues to ensure that ALG is involved in local sports organizations amongst other local community initiatives. Most recently, Jas and other lawyers at ALG were asked to assist in helping to bring the 55+ BC Summer Games to Abbotsford.
