Thought Of The Day

  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...

  Another hot morning. Humid, the sun is shining in full bloom. The  month of July is nearly done.  Just one more day to go. It is 9.15 in the morning. I have to do my laundry. I will put my comforter in the washer. It is bulky so it will take longer to wash.  I don't do that so often. Just a couple of times in a year. Too much work to handle. I will do that now after that I will have my breakfast. By the time I will be done with my laundry. I will start getting ready for my walk. We have to organize things to streamline our time table for the day. After our retirement, we have to manage things on our own. We still have twenty four hours to handle. It is a hot day so I have to pick something light to wear from my wardrobe. I picked my flowery georgette top. Very light and not a see through one. It reminded me of my friend. I bought it from the Bay departmental store with her. Decades ago we used to go to the Scarborough Town Center to enjoy our time together. She use...
