by the Grace of God

I am OK by now so will see My Dr

I have to take 3 Buses for Scarborough

Memories are attached to this Place

I used to come to this Centre with
My Daughters to enjoy 25 years back
I am sitting alone now ordered My Lunch
to brighten My Day

My Dr. is in North York I have taken
Bus # 122 put 2 Dollars for My senior
Bus Fare and took transfer ticket
this will cover My whole Journey

It was 20 minutes to York Mill Station
from there I changed Bus # 95 B
after 20 minutes I have to get down
at McCowan from there 3rd and last Bus
to My destiny Scarborough Centre

It was 5 minutes driving distance from
McCowan I was not able to see the Bus # 
as My Eye drops making my vision
Blurred

I started My journey from My Dr. at 10 .15
and reached at The Centre at 11 .45
My Son was calling me to drive me here

But I feel Happy doing My things Myself
and not bothering My Kids I trust

    I have posted the blog in Smile Corner. Today being Friday, there are a lot of people who are coming. Most people come to read the blog before going home or to the pub. It is a festive atmosphere. The priest is also here. Some customers are saying hello to him and secretly smiling.

      SWN was very Friday like today. Some people were looking forward to weekend but most were not feeling good because they are hooked on blogs.

      SWS had a similar mood. Specially these series of blogs about parenting is of a lot of interest. Participants from lobby B discussing about Smile's blog from earlier about writing. The management is really making a push for them to adopt that style when writing reports

    Dear Advisor,

    The retirees were inspired and shocked to read your blog today. We were inspired because you are completely independent. Even for our most active members there is no way that we can be that active. For example, our members have stopped taking public transit on their own for a long time. We were shocked because we could not imagine that you were left at the mercy of the public transit system by your son. From what we have heard, the bus drivers are generally not very polite, in fact very rude

    Thank you so muych for inspiring us

    Dear Author,

    We have set up a routine that we go through the reading of the blog together ie with students and professors. We do that at the SRC. Today the Dean also joined us for the reading of the blog. As we were reading the blog, our dean commented that he wont be able to read the entire blog because it is too frightening for him. He clarified that he is thinking of his own retirement and wondering if his son will do the same thing to him. He is thinking of asking the sociology department to do research and determine how commonplace it is that parents are not treated fairly and kindly by their children in the Western world. I will let you know as this research topic develops

    PS: As students and young people, I want to let you know that not all young persons are that rude and inconsiderate

    thank you

    Reeeelaaax Plunker. Just calm down. Why do you have to have so high expectations. You already know that there is no point in teaching the kids these days. Besides Smile has asked us to be gentle

    Thank you mrizvi. Amazing comment today. Very informed judgement

    I discussed today's blog as an icebreaker and it shocked all participants. People were amazed that Smile's inspiration and being able to make the best of the day. At the same time, they were surprised that her son would actually do this to her.

    Smile's blog made me happy that she is so independent and does not rely at all on her family. At the same time, I felt that her only son is not really doing anything for her. I would like to say something about him but am holding my tongue

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...
