Thought Of The Day

  The weather is great. Not too hot. Not too humid. Beautiful morning. Cool breeze with 24 C.  It's 10.30 in the morning. I am just out of the dentist office. Dentist appointments at my age are a bit scary. Not only Dentist, any Dr appointment is not at my welcome note. We won't be getting A grade in our report card from any of the doctors. We know that our body is old and needs repairs and replacement of some of our body parts. We know any doctor won't be able to give us a clean slate. Not even the passing marks. Anyway this is life. We have to accept whatever there is with patience. We have to realize that we enjoyed our life with this body of ours, much stronger than today. Nothing is forever. Life keeps on changing and so does our body. We undergo a systematic change throughout our life. Change from our childhood to kids to teens to adults and finally to the later stages of life. We managed and accepted every stage of life with open hearts so what's wrong now. I bel...

  It's a hazy morning. Rain on the way in the afternoon. I am on my way to the coffee house.  I have taken my red umbrella just in case. We have to be ready for anything. It is better to be prepared to face anything. Not to ruin our trip. It is 9.30, I am crossing the intersection of the Whites Road and Kingston road. Kingston is a sort of highway. Very busy. Today is a big day for me. One of my daughters is coming with her husband for a short trip to Toronto. I have to make some vegetarian dishes for them. Her husband likes stir fried vegetables. I got zucchini and eggplant. I will make it with onions and tomatoes. I think it will be tasty. Let's see. I believe our love makes any dish tasty. Recipes are just a side show. The same recipe will not give the same result. The person who is cooking makes all the difference. I think it matters who will be going to have our cooking. Relationships are key for everything in our life. Feeling low and lonely is not going to make any dish...

It's a hot humid day. August has already started and it's still hot. I think there is one week to go.  We will have a different scenario after that. Mid August will not be the same. Anyway we have to adjust accordingly. We can not change anything.  Not the weather, atmosphere and even the people around. The only thing that comes in our jurisdiction is our own self. We can change our dressing accordingly to manage our day schedule. We can change our mood to coordinate with the people to manage relationships. We are the masters of our domain. We don't have to undermine our power. We have total command to change ourselves in the direction we want to. Try to be a positive person. Polite and humble. No one likes arrogant people. It is difficult to be friends with a person with a negative attitude. Things go on changing throughout lives. Moments are not the same all the time. We come across many bitter moments to handle. Accept whatever comes on the way with patience. Patience i...

  It's Tuesday, the long weekend is done, not for me. No Darts on Tuesdays so I am off today too.  For now I am at the Coffee House enjoying my morning. We have to try to plan to make our days. No matter what. One of my friends arranged a get together at 11.30. I will be there after I finish at Coffee House. To be busy I think is a blessing. It helps to keep us away from stray thoughts. It keeps our mind and body active. What we don't use gets stale.  We start losing that ultimately. Keep that in mind. We are working or retired. It doesn't matter. We have to manage our lives to move forward. Try to get busy doing things of our choice. It helps to get inner peace and harmony. Mental peace is key to managing our mood swings. It helps us to be patient. Patience helps to handle things in our day to day matters. There are so many ups and downs on the way throughout. We come across happy and bitter moments in our lifetime. Keeping ourselves busy sorts so much to handle things. ...

    It is 9.30 in the morning. I am set for my walk. Not much to get ready.  No heavy jacket, no gloves, no stole. We are enjoying our summer.   Just a light top and my casual pants. Very light matching scarf to give color to my dress. Never leave any chances not to give colors. It is good to add colors to your dress.  Try to add up anything to top up the taste of your food too. Everything matters. Your company. The people around at work and in the household. Among everything, your attitude matters the most. Our attitude is key to looking at things in life. Nothing matters with a negative attitude. The first thing to spread happiness is that we have to give happiness to our own selves. We can't make anyone happy with our gloomy faces. Bitterness is infectious. It is like a disease. The people around could be easily caught with the bitterness of our personality. I am walking by the Whites Road. My friend the White Butterfly is walking beside me. I think she knows...

  Beautiful morning. Great day. It is a long weekend. Monday is closed too. I don't have to go to work.  No playing Darts on Monday. I have other plans to switch. Kids are home sleeping. They take their time not in a hurry. Start their day not too early. My son is awake. He is an early riser. Everyone else is not awake. It is a bit quiet at my place. The same is the situation in my neighborhood. I like to start my day early. I am  getting ready for my walk to the coffee house to enjoy my time. We have to find things to give color to our life. It boosts our will power. Elevates our mood. Helps to change our attitude. Our perspective to look at life. It matters at every age. It is the key to managing the later stages of our life. Attitude matters how we take our life. We have to find how to give color to our days. Every moment matters. Try to enjoy what you have. Some days are hot and burning. Some days are cold and freezing. Some days our body parts are not in shape to fol...
