Ice Storm

My Dear Kris Father
How can you ask Kris
not go to Office
as I want to go to walk Mall

I can not understand
please don't put your son
under so much pressure

How can you think that
TV is total your time
everyone go my way

I think My Friend try
to spend some Time alone 

It will be great for everyone 
and for you too

 Please be reasonable
and show some Kindness


In the morning I was watching
the News Channel while I was
getting ready to go to Library

New Brunswick had Ice storm
trees were loaded with ice not
snow all giving a glassy look

Due to heavy load of ice electric
wires damaged and end up in
power breakdown in thousands
of houses

It reminded me I think it was six
years back month of December my
Youngest Daughter from England
visiting for two weeks

We had the same Ice Storm in Toronto
houses with no power for days we were
lucky to have after 24 hours

We have Gas Burners so no problem
with having food but others had a big
big problem for that too

Nowadays we are so dependent on these
luxuries which we take as granted and as
routine for our day to day Life

 We had food but Kids sitting with long
faces with no charged iPod and Cell phones
we were missing TV as not aware of what
is going on in City 

At night time you can imagine Dec in
Canada and no heating so we had to use
all of our comforters as well as all sheets
to cover up and stay a bit warm

We are family of six with my Daughter's
two Kids we were nine altogether keeping
Gas Burners on we managed somehow

Next day we had a Drive to our Neighborhood 
Sun was shining so trees were giving a
tremendous look with all the colors 

Some trees looked like having small
bright red and golden fruits due to sun
light reflection it was amazing

I still remember the beautiful view
but the Drive was very dangerous 
we had to watch for the live wires

With speed of 10 to 20 Km and still
had to stop for wires My Daughter
was taking pictures 

To record beautiful Memories 
to share and cherish

    Dear Advisor,

    The retirees are still going through your blog from yesterday. The more they are analyzing it, the more items they are finding. We appreciate you pointing it out to us, otherwise we like would have missed it.

    The retirees went for our grueling and arduous walk today. As is often the case, there were others at the cafe who joined us as we were going through the reading of the blog. The young gentleman from the local university was also there. He also brought some of his friends with him. They were asking a lot of questions which our retired author was addressing for them. Apparently one of them is planning on submitting a research paper on your blogs. This is part of his academic school work.

    Thank you again for writing for us

    You are so good in remembering even little details of the past and then you have this remarkable quality of enjoying those memorable moments, keep smiling everyone and try to treasure all the beautiful, little moments which can make your life so beautiful once remembered....

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...
