This is Brand New Day
My Friend

It is Saturday Bright Sunny Morning with 10 Below
Zero Temperature Heavy Snow It is Called Flurries
Coming Non Stop From Top 

Soft Cottony Stuff Piling up On The Ground
Yesterday My Son Shoveled The Driveway
To Move His Car Today is The Same 

 Whenever We Have To Go Out First Have To Shovel
It Can Not Be Done Completely as Lots Of Snow There
He Just Makes Some Passage For us To Walk To The Car

 Everyone Keeps Brush and Hand Scraper in Cars
To Clear Windows and Screen To Drive Safely
When You Park Your Car For a While You Never Know
What Have To Face after

 I Mean The Whole Car Might Be Under Snow So
Before Driving Have To Do Lot Of Work To
Clear The Mess Still Nothing Stops Here and
No One Stays Home Because Of Snow

Today is Saturday also Winter Vacation For Kids
I Made Stir Fried Burritos With Special Basil Omelette
Everyone Wakes up Late -- were Happy To Have Nice Brunch

 It is 1 pm My Son Has To Go Pick up His Son From
Friend's Place I Had Chance To Get Out He Dropped Me
At Tim Horton 

I Am Enjoying My Small Coffee and Writing My Blog
Not So Crowded Here -- Take Away is Busy
Started Thinking about Life

 To Live Our Life We Have To Pass Through Unpaved Path
Through Trails with Bushes All Around -- Have To
Gather Flowers Of Happiness To Get Going --
This is Life My Friends

    I have posted the blog in Smile Corner. This being Sunday, their lots of out of town customers too. Customers noticed that the priest used a lot of words from Smile's blogs. All people then come to my shop and read the blog from today as well as the rest of the week. It appears to me that the customers are getting more and more every week as I run out of biscuits, yogurt smoothie, banana smoothie and tea quickly now

    Dear Advisor,

    The retirees were very appreciative of your blog today. It provided us a picture of the life in Canada. With your folksy style, you have sketched a very clear picture of the life there including how the day to day commute and transportation works.

    The retired corporate executive was very thankful to you for forgiving her. We asked her to do the reading of the blog but she said that she is not deserving of that honour. We tried to convince her but she said that she is forgiven by Smile to listen to the blog but that does not mean that she can start reading the blogs too

    The subcommittee on parenting and Smile with Smile program have received a no. of requests from parents with older kids to provide ideas and guidance for parenting. We have engaged the retired parenting counsellors and also the active practitioners and experts however most of the retirees prefer your guidance as you can relate to the teenagers very well. If you can please help

    thank you
    recent retiree

    Dear Author

    We read your blog at the SRC today. Prof George completely went bonkers over the blog. He kept on reminding everyone that this how great authors write. He is a very senior Literature professor and well known in the literary circles. He said that you have a way of putting colour in the pictures that you paint using your folksy style. When we asked him to clarify he said that how many of us can close their eyes and imagine the life in Canada in the winter. All the participants raised their hands. He responded with a smile that I rest my case.

    We are getting reports from the students who have returned home that they are facing significant challenges in adjusting to the life back home. In some cases their parents are asking them to do a lot of household chores, in other cases they are being asked to listen to long lectures and in other cases their siblings are giving them a hard time. In majority of the cases though, it is simply a matter of adjusting to the new life. They were asking the Dean for help but he said that this is something that you are better equipped to deal with. Some students said if he should form a committee of parenting experts but the Dean smiled and said, dont worry Smile will deal with this.

    thank you

    This is yet another classic from Smile. Just like we get presents, she packaged the brilliant guidance using her folksy language, and then put a bow on it!. Dont believe me, just look:

    "To Live Our Life We Have To Pass Through Unpaved Path
    Through Trails with Bushes All Around -- Have To
    Gather Flowers Of Happiness To Get Going --
    This is Life My Friends"

    Absolutely brilliant from Santa Smile

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...
