Blue Trampoline and Basket Ball Pole

-

Image result for back garden with flowers pictures















It is Sunday bright beautiful mixed sunny and cloudy morning with 8 C 
below zero. I am done with my breakfast sitting in the TV lounge. News 
channel is on, I am not much interested in that. I am enjoying view of my 
back garden, through the big glass panel.

 Big Trampoline of Royal blue in color, looking beautiful in the center of my 
backyard. I started thinking how things change. It was just matter of couple 
of years, it used to be full with so many kids around. 

 My Eldest, Master Golden and Slurpee Boy with all of their friends used to 
enjoy jumping over, playing ball games on this Trampoline. We used to be 
on guard to watch over, to make sure no one going to be hurt. 

 Our backyard used to be full of life, kids shouting and running around to 
catch each other. It used to be fun atmosphere around. Kids are now grown 
up. They are no more kids. Some gone to Uni. some are in High school. 

 Trampoline giving a deserted look, same is the Basket ball pole, at my front 
yard. We have to value the moments in hand. Present is everything. Past is 
done, we can not turn the page.

 But there is always something to give you happiness. If we look around, 
there is always something. Now I get happiness watching black Squirrel, 
the white Butterfly, the pear tree, the wooden fence, the red bench, glass top 
of the patio table and all the Gold in my back garden. 

 My backyard is still full of life. Life is always beautiful, it is the way 
you look at it, that only matters. Glass is half full not half empty. 

 Dear Retirees I am not happy with the Lady why she always talks about 
her Religion. I am also a bit scared that now the Priest got an idea to have
Christmas Bazar at Church and he will force everyone to attend. Religion 
is very personal. Keep it like that.

 Please let Blog Reading Sessions out of Religious Discussions. By the way 
I go for everything so it was not only to celebrate Christmas. My Son was 
going to get groceries after dinner. I went with him too, it was snowing and 
12 C below zero.

 I like to go alone, not like Father who needs two people to walk around. 
We don't have to bother others for our own personal enjoyment. My Son 
knows that very  well so please don't blame him. 

 Dear Reader doing 2 Jobs please stay away from Wicked Worker. If she 
celebrates still don't have her cakes and biscuits. She is not your friend.

    Dear Advisor,

    The retirees went for our long walk today. As usual, it was a long walk just under 10 mins with a few breaks in between. Our walk, though very long for us is nothing compared to the ones that you take. After that we had our lollipop

    The retirees were amazed that you are always positive. The retirees noted that you always manage to find a positive aspect in every situation. The retired mental health specialist said that in most cases people used to come to her, feeling low about empty nest scenario yet in your case, you flipped the situation and enjoyed the new scenario.

    The retired priest said that as per your instructions he will not force anyone to come to the Christmas bazaar but this is that time of the year and he will request everyone to donate.

    thank you
    recent retiree

    Dear Author,

    We read your blog at the SRC today. The faculty of sociology was invited to the reading today. This is the first time that some of the senior professors listened to the blog. They were simply blown away. They asked the Dean if you are a global sociology professor or consultant. The Dean simply smiled and said that you are much more than that. They asked for more specifics but the Dean said that you are a master of many traits.

    Some of the students are very upset with their parents that they keep threatening to cut the internet or cut the phone many times. In one case, the student was threatened at least 2 times in 2 months. In both cases it was because he forgot to close the car door at night and couple of nocturnal animals made it inside the car. Of course the student knew that there is no one that they will do that

    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...

     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...
