Life ?

It is night time 7 pm I am going
with my son to drop my eldest
Grand kid to Hockey Arena 
he has to go for a Coaches meeting
to reshuffle the teams as season
has started

I can see the confidence the hidden
sense of glory and accomplishment
he is 17 and I think he is taking this
as one of his big achievement to be
a Coach

Our joy and happiness everything
is relative and changes
at every step of our Life we feel
something very important but at our
later stage of Life not looks so

Something we push so hard to get
at any cost looses it's value after
a while it doesn't mean anything
and we get surprised of ourselves
that why we were after this

Life is a change every step every
moment we see different targets
to achieve we see change in our
interest in our goals

When we are kid our focus is
winning every game every sport
then our studies after that our career
and at later stage our objectives
are divided between self and 
our family

When we are retired everything
gone our Family our Career
we are sitting by the Empty Nest
thinking about our achievements
of our life which is all past

We want to talk about that to feel
good but no one ready to listen
we start feeling low with our
weak bodies and our low self esteem

Our parents and kids all gone
leaving us alone with our golden Past
we have to find hobbies and start
sharing with our Communities
the people around us 

Everyone is in the same boat we
all need sharing open up to share
especially in the last leg of our life
we have to find our hobbies and trust
in God this is our shelter our refuge
keep us away from complaining
and always bring joy and happiness

      I am chairing this week's Toastmasters and to be honest, I am ok to use any of the blogs that Smile has written for Toastmasters. They all have been high quality blogs. Kim and I will go through the blogs to shortlist them. I have asked Kim to help out with this as she won the Smile addict title last time

    I read the blog multiple times today and to be honest it is beyond my depth. I am not giving up though and will keep going at it until I have a better understanding. Smile is pretty cool. So many different aspects to her personality.

    mrizvi: I think even if you would have tried to read the blog today, it would not have helped. You would have read the words but would not have got the meaning. Sorry girl

    Hey Plunker, thanks for fessing up. I though I am the only one who did not completely understand Smile's blog today. I also felt that it was very deep. I do have a post graduate degree so it is not that i am fresh out of school. I agree with you that Smile is pretty cool

    mrizvi: you should still try to read

    Please dont thank us Smile. We should be the one thanking YOU.

    You write amazing blogs and also take the time to thank us. Very generous of you

    mrizvi: I am not sure if you have noticed but you are usually the first ones that she thanks. Just saying

  January 12th 2024 It is around mid of January. Time for us to, start getting snow storms. This will be off an on, for the next couple of weeks. It is 10.15, mixed sunny cloudy morning, windy too. Gusts are 38 to 48 km.  Friday used to be my work day, not today. Kids day camp is going on in the library, at my work place. I am off for the whole week. I have to find my own things to do, to get busy. From Monday, things will be back on track. I will be having my regular work hours. It is 11.45, I am getting ready to walk to Tim Hortons. I take it as my second home. I know that it is cold and windy. I am all set with gloves, stole and three layers underneath my winter coat. I will be fine. Whites Road and walkway is, all clear of snow. I see some white patches of snow, by the side of road, under trees and bushes. This is the beauty of Toronto, snow cleared right away. It looks like a usual wintry day. No snow. Everything working, normal routine. Nothing stops, so is my walk. I am at Tim H

  July 7th 2023 It is hot sunny morning, 9.15 and already 24 C, feel like 26. I woke up early, done with my breakfast. Talked to one of my daughters, my middle one, called me from Grimsby.  She was going home, done with her work. It was a brief talk. She was busy, picking up her son, on the way from school. My other daughters are still at work. They will call me later on. We talk everyday, not much, just to connect.  I am busy with my computer. No message from my childhood friend. She never skips, must be busy. She was at her son's place in Sydney, was planning to go back to Perth, to be with her daughter. She must be stuck, other matters to be resolved. Anyway we have to find our own, "Things to do", to get busy, to make our day. Don't have to wait for people's calls and messages. I am busy playing Scrabble and Card games on my computer. Computer is sort of Blessing for me. I don't know how my Mom used to pass her time without phone and computer. How come she

  June 13th 2023 Beautiful morning. Great weather. It was raining all day, yesterday. Stopped at late night. I was working, Mondays are my work days. Have to go to play Darts. It starts at 9.30 in mornings. We were thirteen all together. Picked our numbers to make teams. Two boards with four teams. Three players in each. One team was odd, I mean with four. Anyway we enjoyed. Thirteen seniors on a rainy day, out to play, to enjoy time together. Amazing at that age. Gives inner peace. Boosts will power with affirmation that we still can do it. Rain or no rain, nothing can stop, to make our day. I think, will is everything behind your motto. When there is a will, there is always a way to go ahead, to move on, to do what you want. Today is Tuesday, weather is great 18 C, a bit on a cooler side. I am off, not working on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Last week I booked my flight to England. My daughters were pushing me for that. Asking me to come, to visit. Travel is too demanding at our age. Too
