Drops of Happiness

London 
England


My Grade Five school friend 
lives at Finchley Station
She was insisting me to stay at her place for couple of days

I packed my trolley and didn't forget to
pack my computer inside
My daughter picked my trolley to check
it's weight

She was concerned that how will
I manage it in my 2 and a half hours
long journey with three different buses 

She was insisting to drive me to
Norbury station which I didn't agree
We have to manage our things
as much as possible on our own

It is good children ask but if we start
depending on them
they will stay away and stop asking

I started my journey from Thornton Heath
at 10 am and at 12.30 I was at Finchley Station

My another Grade five school friend 
was also at her place from Los Angeles
We three friends of old school timer
had Lunch together

It was a Unique occasion we
talked about everything
It is so relaxing with friends
when we are old these things matter a lot
Our Days are numbered 
slipping away from our Life 

We have to drain every drop of Happiness
from our Today
Thank You God for providing
these Moments I am so Grateful to You

    It is great that you are having so much energy and initiative. All retirees should be living the life this way.

    Didn't I tell you all that MY Smile is amazing!! Her daughter was concerned about her comfort and yet she decided not to worry her. No wonder she has so many friends and well wishers

    Thank you Smile

    @ mrizvi: Please read and you will know how much you are missing

    You are truly having a very enjoyable time. I noticed that you mentioned about packing your computer. I am assuming that you lugged it with you for two and half hours of arduous journey because of myself and your other readers. I am very much in debt of you for being so generous with your writings.

    Thank you and take care

    What an inspiring way to have a fantastic day. For a no. of people, they would have stayed in bed, watch TV, complain about the weather (too cold, too hot, too rainy, too cloudy ....), or just yell at the kids. You did completely the opposite. And that is the way we all should be living our life.

    MY Smile is simply awesome. They should ask you to come to BBC so many more can learn from the way you do things

    @ Karen: Smile does not belong to you only. She is mine too

    Great way to spend a day. Enjoying time with friends. Completely independent. And also not forgetting your readers family :-)

    I am amazed as to how you can keep writing daily yet also have a great time. You are really inspiring

    Dear Madam Smile, it is so nice of you that you are enjoying your days in London. I showed your blog to my coworkers at my 2nd job today. They could not believe it. They asked me to show them your last blogs also. We have so much to learn from you.

    @ mrizvi: Please read these blogs

    Will you be writing your blog today? I was hoping not to bother you but I am addicted to these blogs. The daily diet of good writing and message that you provide to me and other readers is amazingly good.

    Sorry for being selfish

    Just a friendly note to the readers family. Our Smile is on holidays. I know we all want to see her blogs but let us be patient and don't put undue demands on her

Bird are busy picknicking

    Beautiful morning sunny and bright. No more rain. We had already more than enough of it. Grass and flowers, don't need any watering. It is 26 C, hot day.   This is weekend, I have to do my hair color. My friend invited me for afternoon tea. I will go there. It is always good to be with friends and family. We have to accept invitations, to make our day. I think, calls are sort of blessings. Signals from God for us to gather happiness. Life is nearly the same for everyone. It is all up to us, how we take it.  Try to give color to the moments in hand. Sitting idle, doing nothing, won't bring happiness. Try to be active, do something, anything you like to do. Go for walk, to look the scenery around.  Some people like outdoors, some not. They like to be indoors. Find the spot of your choice in your garden / balcony, get book / magazine of your interest, to be happy. Bird watching is beautiful. You feel great, watching them doing things, you get invo...

Nature is great

     October 29th 2024 It's a different scenario today. Cloudy morning hazy sky. Sun is hiding under his gray blanket. It is Tuesday so I don't have to go to work. No Darts today at the library. It is a day off for me. I have to make other plans to make my day. Day offs are like clean slates. We have to write our schedule to fill out the columns of the day. When we have to go to work or school, our timings are all set.  We don't have to worry about how to pass our time. We have just a couple of hours left to sort out after coming back from our workplace or school. Weekends and day offs are tricky. We need some homework to fill out our day slots. Try to make it like a combo, a mixed plate to have a taste of everything. Day offs are like blank sheets. We can write, paint, whatever we want to do, to fill out. Every day is like a container with twenty four hours of consignment. It's delivered every morning.  We have to open it and use to finish it up. It all has to ...

Have a taste of Nature

      October 22nd 2024 Great morning 18C. It is like summer for Canadians. Couple of more days to enjoy the outdoors.  Beautiful leaves of all colors are everywhere giving a scenic look to the atmosphere to behold and to cherish these moments. Nature is amazing. There is always something for we Humans to make our day. Take some time off from your day today to look around. You will find beauty everywhere. It doesn't matter in which part of the world you live. Don't have to plan for long trips. It is all at your doorsteps. Keep your eyes open and take a break to smell the nature around. You will get the flavor and also inner peace deep down. It will be a rare happiness all on its own. You don't have to make any payments, any investments for that. Just a time alone slot and all the transactions will be done. It works like meditation. It's 11.45, I am at Tim Hortons enjoying my small tea, not coffee today. We have to change our menu too. It works something like a change...
