Changed Scenario
My Friend Doing 2 Jobs
You Have To Go To Your
Job Number 2
Don't Leave Your Job Because Of Your
Co- Worker Just Ignore Her
Some People are Like That
They Love To Ruin Other People's Day
You Don't Have To Worry
Focus On Your Work
Hannah My Friend I am Worried
About You
Take Care Of Yourself
Niklas My Dear
I Know It is Not Your Fault
But Father is Very Selfish
He Doesn't Care
You Focus On Your Game
and Your School
I Love You My Friend
It is Monday Cold Cloudy Morning with 5 Below Zero
Yesterday was Very Busy For Me -- I Had Two
Gatherings One at My Friend's Place The Other
at Night at My Brother's Place in Aurora
Nearly One Hour away From My Place
It was Great also Nice Feast after -- I also Met My
Younger Brother and Sister in Law -- They are
Visiting From Chicago Living at Their Daughter's
Place in Markham
It is always Good To Be Connected Though Things
Changed For Everyone -- I Mean Now They are with
Families Of Their Own so Brothers and Sisters Not
Have The Same Connection
On Top When They are Not Living in The Houses
Of Their Own -- Totally Changed Scenario Now
Most Of Them Living in Their Kid's Houses
Just Like You and Me
We Don't Have To Expect Much From Each Other
Still When We Meet It Reminds us Of The Days
We Spent Together More Than Half a Century Back
But We Have To Keep in Mind We Both Have
Limitations Of Living in Joint Family So While
Meeting We Don't Have To Disturb Peace and Harmony
Of The Members Of Our Family Who Have
No Interest in Our Brothers and Sisters
It is Not Their Fault They Have Distant Relation and
In Case Of Our Daughter / Son in Law -- It will Be None
So Take It Easy and Be Realistic
Have a Brief Meeting Or Meet Somewhere Outside
Place Some Coffee House -- I usually Do That
While Meeting My Friends
Immediate Family Always Comes First which is Your
Kids and Their Families Then Come Sisters and Brothers
They are Your Blood But
So Much Changed Now For Everyone We All are Old
and Live in Kid's Houses Still Have To Avail Whatever
Moments We Can Share

ReplyDeleteDear Advisor,
ReplyDeleteYour blog was an eye opener for us. Many of the retirees were very concerned after they read your blog. We had a small discussion among ourselves. The discussion was led by the retired family conucillor. She pointed out that you have described the situation very realistically. She said that you have been very direct but it is a true reflection of the changes that the retirees need to make. As the retirees were getting more and more concerned, she reminded us of your previous blogs in which you have identified the positives of joint family living. She also reminded us that you wrote about the process of give and take.
After the meeting was over, several retirees called each other because they were very nervous and could not deal with the reality. They were also concerned that they wont be able to sleep at night. The retirees are wondering if you can please provide more guidance.
thank you

Dear Author,
ReplyDeleteThe students read your blog at the Smile Research Center. The students are still not allowed to visit the Smile Garden as the decorations for the New Year are still ongoing. The Smile Army volunteers have also got some of the senior professors involved however they are not allowing the Dean and us to go there. We are starting to get annoyed. The Dean however is asking us to take it easy and respect the wishes of the Smile Army. The bookstore manager is helping out. The students from the local school are also there.
Our parents are asking us to be very careful with money. They dont realize that we are already doing our best but we do need to spend something. They are threatening to cancel our phone and internet again. We are somewhat concerned
thank you
