Kris My Dear 
Father not going anywhere
He is My Friend

He is very generous
He only has to watch His 
Tele Hours

That's it He can manage
We all Love Him

Niklas My little Friend
I am proud of You 
and Your Friends for going
to Church for My Father
Thanks a lot Love You

Dear Retiree Friends 
I am really proud of You

 You are doing so much
work to give messages 
from My Blogs 

To help Community 
Thank You

 Our Kids are Our Asset
our Future I will write
more about this 
important Subject
Keep going to cafe 
to hold your Meetings
this is good for You

Today My Blog
is about Listening

The more I start thinking about
Listening the more I feel about
that it is very complicated

Not easy --  listening has so many
stages we often think as Hearing
is Listening

Not like that we need our whole
body to be involved in that process
It is the strongest communication

We have to absorb ourselves cut off
from all other businesses of ours
and have to focus

The person who is talking should
have total trust that I am getting 
his Message

Hearing is done through Ears
Listening is when our Body is into it
including our Mind and our Heart

20 Years back I read a book about
Listening I liked it very much
it was mentioned that 80% of our
first job depends on Listening

 I totally agree with that it is not simple
it is a project needs lots of training
and practice 

Believe me on the other hand
the listening time period is
like a  Meditation time zone

We switch off all the buttons of our
stray thoughts our Body is immersed
and totally focused it also needs
lots of patience

This is Meditation no doubt about that
Just try that and how relaxed you will be
for that time you will know yourself

    I have posted the blog in Smile Corner. There are lots of customers coming even on Monday. The entire town seems to be going gaga over Smile's blog from yesterday. It is a huge deal here

      SWN was fun too. We talked about Smile's blog about parenting. It created a big buzz.

      I have got many requests from people who want to attend Smile Forums. Almost the entire corporate office wants to attend these sessions. The blogs were already popular but the one about parenting are phenomenally popular

    I lost the race to post the blog on our corporate notice boards. It was already posted when I got there. Of course, there was also a box of fresh SDs with a note from SA

    This blog provided me with a perfect fix for my business meeting today. We were in a meeting where no one was listening. During the break I suggested that we refresh our minds too and read this blog. The entire meeting dynamics changed.

    Smile is fantastic

    And this is really the most difficult part of our daily lives.I always try my best but as you have mentioned , it needs a lot of patience which most of us are lacking so we need to build it.

    Dear Advisor,

    The retirees did not go for the walk today as we were too tired. We did however go to the cafe to do the joint reading of your blog. We were very surprised, and to be honest, humbled that you thanked us for our endeavours. It should be YOU who deserve to be showered with appreciation and not us.

    We talked about today's blog and due to the significant interest, have formed a subcommittee to look into this. This subcomittee will research your blog and once it has learnt the fine art of listening, will share it with the other subcommittees. This is because, listening is something which is critically needed by all the subcommittees.

    The reason I am writing late today is because we also dealt with another matter today. As you cleared the retired data security scientist and the retired information security consultant from any misgivings, we scheduled a meeting to formally reinstate them as members. Though your decision came last week but we did not want to meet until this week as a mark of respect to your father. The two members, a lady and a gentlemen, have expressed their sincere thanks and gratitude to you for your vote of confidence in them.

    thank you
    recent retiree

    What is going on here? Is anyone listening? Is there anyone home? I give up! Really. I am this close to stop being kind. After all there is a limit to everything ...

    Just chill Plunker. Take a cold bath. Or read one of Smile's blog again. That should calm you down. No point in popping an artery. Kids these days do not think seriously. Their pet phrase is " I dont care". I think thats why Smile wants us to be generous to all

    Good work mrizvi. How is school coming along kiddo

    This blog is absolute brilliance from Smile. Just have a read how she describes listening
    "Hearing is done through Ears
    Listening is when our Body is into it
    including our Mind and our Heart"

    I have not seen a better definition yet!

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...
