Today's Blog

One of my school friend lives in Sydney
we are connected by writing our
daily Messages she lives with her
Daughter now going to her son in Perth

Her husband is old so all the old age
problems hearing and with Eyes
when we are old every body Part
needs repair and help

Her Son has also family she is
worried with lots of changes in her
Life by shifting from her Daughter's
to her Son's Place

With age not be easy to make
adjustments in their Lives in
accordance with one Family
to another one in a new City

Perth and Sydney are I think
2 to 3 Hours Air travel
she has loving children still
with Old age Travel also not easy

We can not share things most of
the time with anyone as no one
can understand the problems
the situations which we have to face

She asked advice and Prayers
we all Seniors and Retirees can
visualize the gravity and the
circumstances in our Lives
everybody has to face in
Day to Day Life

I think that we have to deal Everything
with Grace keeping our Eyes
open and mouth Shut
with Love and patience
and of course keeping in mind
that God is always there
we are never alone

    This is a very realistic view of life. With a single stroke of your pen, you woke us up. It made us reflect on life and take stock of it. Thank you for writing this and making us evaluate from a cold facts perspective

    I enjoy this blog. It provides me with good information and entertainment also. It is fun to read. I usually read with my family just before dinner and it provides good topics for dinner conversation with family

    I used to write comments in my Chinese language but writing in English as Smile requested

    Dear Advisor,

    We read your advice to us with a lot of interest. There was a lot of activity this morning as our members were contacting me and each other to talk about the advice. We will be having a teleconference later in the day to go through your comments in more details.

    @mrizvi: A no. of the members did not understand why you are not being able to read these blogs. They are a quick and easy read. More importantly, they are very helpful

    I was so sad after reading today's blog. I feel that Smile is going through so much. She is talking about her friend but I am wondering if our Smile can actually count on her only son. Smile I am talking about is generous, loving, intelligent, knowledgeable, energetic, hard working, fun loving, positive, optimistic, friendly and so much more.

    Her only son on the other hand is just the opposite. Trust is me that I am very pained to say this but I think I must. What can say about someone who takes a 70 year old lady, let alone his own mother, to a beach in a late September in Canada. What can I say about someone who asks her mother to walk to the bank to get money for himself, even though she just came from a long trip. What can I say about someone who asks a 70 year old lady, let alone his own mother, to feed his kids, buy grocery for his kids from her money, does not drops her off to her library club, does not even get her a decent computer. And there is so much more.

    I cant write because I am getting more and more upset as I am thinking about Smile. And Smile, she lives through all this and does not even complain. In fact, she tries to defend him whenever she can

      I tend to agree with Plunker. I read the blog this morning as I usually do and could not even complete reading it as I was so depressed. I went to work early today so I can distract myself. Even my colleagues noticed that there is something wrong with me.

      I just wish that Smile's only son can treat her better

      @mrizvi: Will you start reading please

    I also have the same depressing feeling as Plunker and Boris described. It is so sad that Smile's only son is juicing Smile

    @mrizvi: And you are juicing our patience. Please stop this act and start reading

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 involved.

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 be done

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 of
