  Days are passing and so is our life. Every day every moment is precious. Try to make use of that.  Time flies and never comes back. What is gone is gone for good. We have to keep that in mind. We don't have to waste our beautiful days with grudges and jealousies. We come across so many people. The people of various cast creeds and cultures. They might be with a different mind set, with different beliefs. Sometimes we have a chance to be with the same backgrounds and still we are not able to get along. So many things matter. So much is there to affect our personalities.The family, the household we live in. The relationships, the health. Not only our own health, the medical conditions of the people around. Everything plays a part in shaping our personality. Everything around us controls our mood swings, our patience level and our nature. We become harsh, easily flared up according to what we are going through. What we are dealing with in our day to day life. It's important to ...

Sun smiling from above

  Another beautiful day. Another beautiful morning. Bright and sunny. It was snowing last night, not much, still enough.  Lots of snow is piled up around the side of shopping malls. Heaps of snow are by the road sides. The walkways are a bit slippery for me to walk on. I have to be patient and take a break. We have to think twice before making plans. Not have to be too ambitious. Health and safety have to be taken as top priority all the time. No compromises on safety. Spring is just a couple of weeks away anyway. It is not a big deal. Not the end of the world. We have so many other options to get busy to enjoy our time. We can do some physical activities at home too. Water plants, busy in the kitchen, walking around in our house  / apartment. Any chances to go to shopping malls will be a bonus like cherry on top. I feel lucky whenever my son or any one of my three grandsons will take some time off to give me a ride to get out. We have to keep track of the time table of t...

Enjoying coffee in a mug

  It is Tuesday February the 10th. The weather is getting better. It snows once a while. Not any snow storms.  Just flurries and light snow. That adds up to the top of the snow already piled up on the sides of roads. Paths are a bit slippery, not safe to walk for the people of my age. We have to be extra cautious while getting out in this weather. City workers do their job as much as they can. Roads are clear. They clear the walkways too.  It is still slushy and with icy patches here and there. I don’t feel safe to walk. Not their fault. It is the weather. It's nearly the middle of February. The winter season is about to be over. A couple of weeks to go. Spring is just around the corner. We are in much better shape here in Toronto. My daughter, the eldest one, called from Edmonton. They have heaps of snow all around. The winter always used to be too long and drastic over there. The weather is getting better in Edmonton. They have 2 C now. Not good for them. It resulted in...

Snow snow go away

  This February looks tough, not like the years ago. Our winter days in Canada start by the end of September.  It starts becoming harder as the time goes by. December sometimes we get snow by the end of the month and have white Christmas.  Sometimes we get snow in January. In January there is snow most of the time. February is tough in the entire winter season. This year winter is really hard. We started having snow storms for the last couple of weeks. January was not the same as the past years. We are still not out of that. Today is 7th of February and we are having 20 C below zero feels like 35 C below. My walks outside are on hold. I now have to switch my walks. Now I have to go to Pickering Town Center. To top up my steps. Tim Hortons used to be a second home for me. I used to spend my time enjoying myself on the days I was off from my work. On those days I didn't have to go to play Darts in the library. The library I use is like my work place. Nothing wrong with maki...

Sun shining in full bloom

    It's a beautiful bright sunny morning. The sun is shining up and above in full bloom to make our days brighter.  So nice of him. It is 12 C below zero today. Much better than the last couple of weeks. Snow is on the way tomorrow. Let's see how the weather will be after that. For now I am enjoying my time. My walks are still on hold. I think it will take a while to start with.  The walkways are not totally safe for me. I am not going to take any chances. Health and safety has always been taken into account for making any plans. We don't have to be too ambitious. Too excited to cross limits. Don't have to go beyond what we are not able to handle safely. I just have to relax. We have to get busy with the things easily tackled. Nowadays Pickering Town Center is sort of my second home. Tim Hortons is under renovation. We have to switch to make our day with whatever available. We have to go with the flow. Nothing has to be taken as the end of the world. Time keeps on f...

I am at Town Centre

   Things are getting better day by day. Snow storms have taken a break. My walks are on hold for now.  Snow is all around. Walkways are not safe for me to walk on. Icy patches are on the path. We have to be extra careful while getting out. Not have to be too ambitious while making plans.  We have to take safety as our top priority. Health and safety is a priority at any age. It becomes more important at the later stages of life. Any mishaps will be disastrous. We will be done for the rest of our life. Not easy to be back on track. I still take my chances to get out. I coordinate with the time of my son and grandsons. I go with them when they go to the gym. Kids nowadays take their workouts religiously. Going to the gym is their daily routine. They don't want to miss that. That works for me. It is 1.35, I am sitting in the food court of Pickering Town Centre. I usually used to go for my walks around 11.30 after. Not any more. My time fluctuates. It all depends on the...

Change seeps slowly

    Change is beauty. Change of scenery. Day ends giving its way to noon, dusk and finally to night. The night gives way to mornings. It is the beautiful cycle of change. Change is the beauty of life for sure. Our childhood changes into teens. We grow up to find change in our friends and our companions. We start our family. Our new life needs to change our place to shift into a new one. We are out of the house, where we spent time with our loved ones. Our parents and our siblings. We have to move out. We need space for our family. We have to change the house. We are done with our school days and have to start our career to step into practical life. The school building has been changed into a workplace. We see our school buddies once a while. No time now. We are busy with work. Colleagues at work are now our buddies. We hang along with them. So much has been changed in our habits in our thinking in what we talk and how we talk. We don't enjoy our time with most of our old buddi...
