Just Nothing

-

Image result for garden pictures













It is 7 in the morning a different
scenery today very light pinkish hue
emerging at the bottom of the dark
sky which becomes grey while
meeting the pinkish borderline 
just above the dark roofs of houses

Trees, road and driveway all
trying to emerge to give their
clear picture 

I switched my computer on to check
my Face book messages from my
Daughters in England and from my friend 
in Sydney 

 My friend's cousin is in hospital
she was worried because of him
I started thinking that how strong are we ?
or how weak we are as nothing is
in our power 

 All is guided and controlled from
the Power above and High
our mind and our body and
all body parts are under His control

 We are here for a given time allotted
and with the power which is considered
to be given we have to act accordingly

 We forget everything and start boasting
taking each of our success stories as
our own accomplishment
whole of our life stories are around
" Me "  and " I "

We never think just for a minute
if these powers taken away if
our time of stay is discontinued
what will be left

"Just Nothing " so don't be proud
of your success your talents
your body and your soul all
is from God my dear

We have no power we are just
puppets in His hand so just
relax and try to behave have a
good time and be thankful to
to the Almighty

      Why do you boast for doing only 2 jobs?

    We enjoyed today's blog two fold - for the content as well as timing. From content perspective, the quality of the blog is quite high, as always. I (Linda) specially like the messaging and thought that you embed in the blog. From Timing perspective, I (Dave) likes how you times these blog. For instance, today's blog is perfect for a Friday as we wrap up our work week. We both have some takeaways from it that we will be sure to make use of today and during the weekend.

    Thank you for enriching our lives with your wisdom and thoughtful writing

    Dave and Linda

      We discussed shortlisting of Smile's blogs for the Toastmasters meeting. Though we tried hard, we are still coming up with at least 2 blogs that we think should be discussed. We reviewed the blog from cultural nourishment and value perspectives. As we only have an hour set aside for the Toastmasters meetings, we are deciding that the next Toastmasters meeting will be completely set aside for Smile's blogs. There will not be time to discuss any other agenda items

    Dear Smile,
    Your posts have taken a new direction lately, a more spiritual direction, and I'm loving it! You make me want to come closer to God and so tonight I will try to pray for the very first time in my life.

    Thanks for guiding me to the right path,

    Once again, you have reminded us that we should not be arrogant rather one should be humble and should always be thankful to God for all his achievements.

    I read the blog with a cup of coffee. I was ready to write the review, which would have been very positive. And then ... And then I saw mrizvi's intelligent commentary. And that threw me off.

    I mean, Smile is working so hard to write great things for us. She is giving a million advices to retirees and they come back for more, and she does not complain. She is so generous with everyone. She do all this work despite her son, who is a corporate hot shot but still asks Smile for money, leaves her to take care of his whinny kids, and so much more. And yet what does Smile get from us? Zero. Nothing. Zit.

    And that would have been enough. but mrizvi jumps in everyday with her "Good post" mantra. O mean just give it a rest. Skip the comment for a day or two.

    All this got me in such a bad mood

    mrizvi: you are so disappointing

    Loved the blog, as always. However like others I too am upset with mrizvi's "good post" comments. She just does not care. I fail to understand why she is doing this. It is upsetting to so many readers family. She is the only one who is rude. We do have someone in the family who just writes +1 but s/he does not comment. S/he is respectful to Smile and the family. Perhaps s/he does not have good english or s/he is shy. But with mrizvi .... I am simply speechless

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...
