New Year Resolutions
It is Monday, December 31st. The last day of the Year. Weather is mild
2 C below zero, not so cold. No snow, no rain still cloudy and
hazy. Tomorrow sun will rise in the Year 2019.
I think as year starts, People take it very hard specially the first couple
of days of the New year. They make tough resolutions and try to keep
that, like, Quit smoking -- Watch my weight -- Spend more hours in Gym.
We have to be realistic to chalk out such plans. Nothing is end of the world.
Don't be hard on yourself. Take it easy. Don't change your diet, change your
plate. Don't plan to exercise tough, for long hours. Be reasonable.
Start with what is doable. This will go long way, will result in more
productivity. Move around, is the best and easy to do. Make sure "to think
positive", has to be there in your New Year Resolutions.
It is Jan. 3rd, 6.30 evening. New Year started, already couple of days old
now. In winter months, sun goes down around four in the evening.
6.30, looks like midnight.
When outside world not looks so bright, we have to do more things,
to brighten our days. My Son is going to Gym, he will drop me at the Mall.
Mall is just across. He will pick me after about an hour. I will walk
around to enjoy my time slot.

ReplyDeleteI have posted the blog in Smile Corner. This being Saturday, lots of customers are in my shop today to read blog. They come here to read blog from today and also the past week. There is no room inside, and people are waiting outside. I am running low on supplies but they are saying dont worry about it. Some customers told me that the priest has officially complained to the authorities about me opening the store on New Year's day. I asked the priest but he didnt say if he complained, he only said that it would be better to not open at least on official holidays. When I reminded him that the police themselves allowed it, he said that the police officer is only an employee of the police. I said he is the chief, but the priest said that then he must have given some letter that you can produce in the court if there is an inquiry. I said no, it was only a verbal authorization. The priest said that I should have known that there is no such thing as verbal approval. The customers started booing him but he said that its not really his fault if the store breaks the rules and left.

ReplyDeleteDear Advisor,
ReplyDeleteThe retirees did not go for our walk today as it was too cold for us. The retirees have stopped going for these walks if the weather is inclement. Some of the retirees are also suffering from flu but they still come for the reading.
The retirees appreciate your blog today. The retirees noted that your take on the new year resolutions is very innovative. The retired psychologist who has been asked numerous time to help lead the resolution making mentioned that you are right as people go over board and put a lot of pressure on themselves. She said that she wished she would have come across this new thinking earlier as she would have been able to help many others. Upon reading your blog, all retirees ripped their new year resolutions
The retired priest came today. We asked him about his whereabouts for the past few days but he didnt respond directly and simply said that he was busy. We told him about your comments that you wrote about him and he simply said that he is a Christian soldier and doing what he is supposed to do. He then added that you are also a good Christian and spreading the true religion in your own way. The hijab lady was here and she said that they have collected all donations that the temple priest took but we said that we will not take that unless you give an ok.
thank you

Dear Author,
ReplyDeleteWe read your blog in the Smile Garden today. The Smile Army idiots a major clean up of the Smile Garden and the Dean commented that these guys have been working on the clean up for a few days now. He asked them if he can also help. The idiots said no as even they realized that the DEAN has a lot of respect and just the fact that he is asking them is very nice of him.
During the reading of the blog, there was pin drop silence. The Dean, Prof George and many others stood up with eyes and head lowered, as they always do. After the reading was complete, one of the Professor said that Smile always has advice to make life simple. Mrs Lucy said that only if her son can recognize that and give her some comfort. She brought in rice pudding for everyone. When the Chancellor's wife asked her for the recipe, she smiled and said that it is from your recipe. She then led the way to play darts.
thank you
