Thought Of The Day

  It's a perfect day today. Just have to wear a light jacket. Not too hot. Not too cold. It is 13 C, 10 in the morning.  I did not sleep well last night. Woke up at 3.30 am. I was trying to go back to sleep. Nothing was working out. I think we start feeling too much pressure at the time everyone is sleeping and we wide awake at nearly middle of the night. The first thing we have to calm down.Things will not be under our control until we are not relaxed. It works all the time. No use of tossing down in your bed. I used to switch my computer on to distract myself at that time. Get busy with Scrabble, cards and word search. It takes some time. Works out after a while. I am off today, so I don't have to go to my library for my part time job. I was not in a hurry to be out of my bed in the morning. I count playing Darts as my part time job. Nothing wrong with tricking yourself to feel good. We have a structured lifestyle throughout our life. Our days are filled with the time tables...

  It is a hot morning, 24 C feeling like 28. I don't have to go to my library to play Darts today.  I am off on Tuesdays. I have to do my laundry with just a small load. I have to make some quick calls and I will be set to leave for my walk. Summer is already here.  We waited so long for these days. No jackets, no winter coats, gloves, stoles, nothing. We are free to move around with our light clothes. Summer in Canada is not for long. We know that by mid August things will start changing. May is nearly done. We get excited to enjoy it fully. We are not house bound in our winter days too. We try to get out. Go for walks. Walks in summer are not the same. We are not loaded with so many layers of clothing. Our winter is scenic with snow around. It is so peaceful, calm and quiet. A totally different scenario in winter time. To enjoy all that we have to push ourselves in 20 to 25 C below zero. To get dressed in layers. Loaded with heavy winter coats and other accessories to t...

  It's a cloudy, hazy morning. It was raining all day yesterday. It also started drizzling now.  I am at the lakeside with my hooded long coat. My sleeveless fawn color sweater is underneath my coat. I have my red umbrella with me just in case. We have to be ready to handle things. Not to ruin the feel of the enjoyment around. Keep things you might be needing to be on the safeside. It is better to be extra careful rather than get stuck. Anyway I didn't have to open up my umbrella. Thanks to my hooded coat. That worked out to handle the drizzling. I was a bit careful with my glasses. Foggy glasses make my walk a bit tricky. Anyway we have to tackle things with whatever is around to make our day. It is 12.15, I am at Second Cup coffee house enjoying my coffee. Time alone is a sort of blessing. We need time to talk with ourselves. No distraction. We don't need any company at that time. This is the time for our own selves. We have to talk and listen to ourselves. Not to anyone ...

  Some days are beyond our control. We can not go with our chalked out plans.  We have no options, just take our plan “ B “ out to make our day. Never let your days be ruined under any circumstances. Things keep on changing.The weather is not in our control. The same is with our health. Sometimes things come up and we are not able to manage our plans. We can switch. What to do has to be enjoyable, not like homework. What we don't enjoy won't help in making our day. The first thing is to be relaxed.That is the key before taking any start. We don't have to take life as any project. Not has to be taken like an assignment.Take it easy one day at a time. Try to fill up pages of the story book of your life. Not with misery. We have to compile our story book with beautiful moments. Life is the same. Just be relaxed. Patience is a virtue. It helps to change the entire perspective of life. Life is like a roller coaster. Things go on changing throughout our journey of life. We have t...

  The day before it was hot 28 C feeling like 34. Today it is totally a different scenario.  It is a bit cooler with 10 C. The weather is like a roller coaster. It is so confusing one day up the other day down. We keep our fingers crossed to decide what to take out to wear from our coat closet. We have to step out of the door to make sure how it will feel to go for a walk. We have all sorts of coats and jackets lined inside the closet. We are all set to tackle our Canadian winter throughout the year long. I usually go for my walk around after 11.30. It takes about 25 minutes to be there at the Second Cup coffee house. I was with my light jacket. I was back just after a couple of minutes of my walk to change my jacket with a heavier one. We have to be very particular with what to wear before heading out for any journey. It is a long journey, a short trip or just a walk. Doesn't matter, it has to be enjoyable. Our dress up has to be comfortable. It is a must. Not only for our ou...

  It's a hot humid morning. The weather channel predicted 28 C feeling like 35.  Rain or shine I go for my walk on the days I don't have to go to my library. I think we have to accept whatever is there and never have to stop ourselves from doing things to make our days. The days are not the same. The weather keeps on changing. We can not control the things around us. We just don't have to lose control of ourselves. Our mind and body is sort of our own jurisdiction. We have to keep total control on that. Keep in mind that our body also keeps on changing. What we are today. Things won't be the same with our body in later days. Our mind goes with our body. It won't be the same either. With time we start getting older day by day. With age our body starts losing its strength. Our nerves are also not so strong as in the earlier days of our life. It all affects our mental well-being too. We start hesitating to go for any bold steps with demanding physical activities. Our d...
