Don't Drain Yourself Out

Kris My Dear Friend
I have written so much
to save Niklas

 It looks I had no luck
Sofa is not more important 
not precious than Your Son

 Niklas back is more important
throw away the broken Sofa
get Him a new one

 He will pay You back in 
Years to come

 Father Pl. leave Niklas alone
He will watch the old people 
TV shows at Your age

Don't push Him to go
outside He has to stay
Home Pl. make His Life
not a Hell 

 Let Him enjoy
His Life His Childhood
Years it wont be back


This is end of March April is
just around the corner I was
thinking about last year 2016

My first Grand kid's Wedding
in London England

 My Youngest Daughter's
Eldest Daughter was going to
be married

She wanted everything perfect
as she knows Her Daughter is
perfectionist 

 She with Her Daughter planned
months before for each and
Every Event 

They spent hours and hours menu
was tricky seating arrangement was
real tough 

Flowers the Theme the Lights -
Music and Decorations now You
can imagine about Dresses

They were so exhausted with the
planning that they were just
drained out

The whole Family was not having
good time at all as in their Mind
so much needed to be done
to get there what they planned

Everyone enjoyed but in their Mind
was not as they planned months ahead

So please never go for perfection
just enjoy and go with the flow

Don't lose the Track of the Moment
don't mess that up with your Planning

Planning is good but not at the cost
of Happiness and enjoyment
don't tear Yourself out of that

Moments are everything they will
never be back what is gone is gone
please keep in Mind

Be in the Moment have a feel of that
and try to drain all the Joy and Happiness
out of that Moment

    This is what all of us are doing, planning and planning to make our big moments special and perfect and as we have planned so much to make it perfect, even if little things go out of hand, we get depressed ,we ruin our moods. We already are tired and exhausted, we don't enjoy it , the way we want it to be remembered.
    I really liked today's blog and will try to follow it.

      I had an interesting meeting with a group of managers. They asked me to talk to them about Smile's today's blog. At the end they pointed out that all planning should factor in Smile's suggestion. Their concern is that we are over-planning, instead we should try to reduce the focus on perfection. This will help improve productivity and also reduce personal stress

      Oh so that's why the management want me to not worry about the details in the schedule for the Smile workshops

      Hi, Planning is god as long it does not annoyed every one. Nothing has to be perfect! enjoying the process is BEST. Simple to me is the always rewarding. Colors or flowers arrangements and good music and good food, that is all. As long people who assist at the wedding or like enjoyed themselves too, you are a winner.
      Good luck,

      I took half but gave the other half to Jasmeet. He could have posted it before me but he gave me a chance to post it. I was one minute behind him but he still waited as I usually lose the race.

    Dear Advisor,

    The retirees did not go for our long walk today. This walk, though very long for us, is nothing compared to the walks that you have. We were very tired from the walk yesterday. Some of the retirees are suffering from cramps also. The retirees instead went straight to the reading of your blog.

    Your blog acted as a relaxation material for our subcommittee chairs. They are driving themselves as well as the team to a punishing schedule however after reading the blog they decided to slow down.

    The retired corporate executive was almost in tears. She mentioned that she wished that she has read this blog before she retired as many of her nights and weekends could have been salvaged. She indicated that this is a huge learning for every organization as each of them try to have a perfectionist mindset.

    All retirees wanted me to explicitly state our appreciation and thanks to you

    Dear Author,

    I cannot thank you enough for your today's blog. It helped us have our lives back. I am not exaggerating

    Our Dean reads your blog regularly and after reading today's blog he came to the SRC and found us feverishly working towards the April 1st deadline. There were a whole bunch of students and professors from different faculties. All of us were trying to go through your various blogs to decipher the real meaning that you have tried to convey. The Dean immediately took a senior professor aside and confirmed his (ie Dean's) understanding of today's blog. The professor confirmed it. The Dean then came to me and said we should do as Smile has told us ie take it easy but dont work ourselves to the bone. He waived his 1st April deadline for us.

    Everyone, including our professors were happy. All this because of the blog that you wrote.

    Thank you. Thank you. Thank you

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...
