Thought Of The Day

It's a beautiful day, breezy morning. Perfect weather to go for a walk. The trees are loaded with green.  The gardens are back to life with beautiful flowers of all colors. The grass is lush green with no brown patches in between. The blood red David Austin is still on break. I can't see any flowers. The same is with the pink Canadian roses. Everyone is different. The same is with plants. They behave and react to the atmosphere taking their own time. The small brown rabbit is sitting quietly at the right by the flower bed. A couple of brown birds with yellow patches on their belly are enjoying their morning walk under the Maple tree. The white Butterfly is whispering to the purple flowers. My son planted a white planter on the weekend with his wife. This is all so peaceful and scenic to behold. To cherish and enjoy a sort of meditation. I am outside in my back garden, sitting on one of the red knitted steel garden chairs. My son got four of these from the Canadian Tire store y...

  I am sitting inside the Second Cup Cafe. It's a bit of a festive atmosphere. Not happens here all the time.  It is not like Tim Hortons where you see people coming and going all the time. The Second Cup is a bit quiet with a different sort of clientele. I used to come here anytime after 11.30.  I keep my mornings for my chores. Some kitchen work, making some calls and to plan out my day plans. The weather has now changed. It is 20 C, breezy. The flower bed in my back garden is back to life. Pink, gold, white and blood red flowers adding up the beauty of the scenic atmosphere. It is the time of the year when you feel cold under shades. Feel hot under the sun. We have to pick and choose what to wear while getting out. Our coats and jackets are back in the closet for sometime. We know that things will start getting changed after mid August. We are feeling relaxed enjoying our time for now. We will handle it when the time comes. We don't have to spoil our days by thinking a...

    It's a beautiful morning. Bright and sunny. My neighborhood looks a bit quiet. The same is at my place.  I think people like to start their mornings late on weekends. No work, no school to be there on time. Weekends people take to get relaxed. To calm down and enjoy for a while their time at home. People like to be with their family for some time. Things start getting changed as the family grows. Kids grow up finding their own activities to get busy with friends. They are still there at home for some time. Parents don't want to miss that opportunity. To have a feel of family time, parents make a point to stay home until kids leave for their plans. I think at every stage of life things start changing. We have to adjust ourselves accordingly. Kids grow up and leave to start families of their own. Our house is no longer the same. It looks like an empty nest. No more hissing buzzing. It is so quiet. We have to make plans to enjoy our days. We are no longer busy with work ...

  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 ...
