Faucets of Happiness

The Many Moods of Garden Benches | Better Homes & Gardens


















Friday -- Beautiful bright sunny morning with 5 C. It is 10.15, I am done 
with my breakfast, with my oatmeal porridge and stir fried egg. Now 
enjoying my morning tea, sitting in the TV lounge, watching Andy Griffith 
show.This is one of my favorite.

 I know, I have to watch News, to connect with what is going on. I will 
watch that after. We have to keep a balance with sweet and sour.

 I use to switch off my phone at night time but I have News updates on my 
cell phone. I go through all the messages and updates, as soon as I am 
awake. I am aware of, what is going on. Just want to give myself some 
time in the morning to switch on the News channel.

News are facts, Shows are fiction. We have to get ourselves ready to face 
the reality, specially in these days. Don't be hard on yourself. Otherwise 
your mind will leave it's positive track and will start going into negative 
direction. 

 I switched on the News Channel. We have to be connected with what is 
going around. It is important. I am focused on Headlines after that will 
connect to, with what's going on in my back garden. For me that 
is important too. 

I am worried about my friend, the Black Squirrel. He was not in good 
shape, day before. I am waiting for the White Butterfly. I have to keep 
an eye, when she be back. She is my friend too. 

 Sun was also not well. He was away for couple of days, looks 
weak, not 100%. I am happy that he is out of quarantine. 
Pear tree is like a skeleton, waiting for the good days ahead. 

 Now, as I look at my back garden, I can feel an Aura of happiness. 
Contentment all around. It was a long wait. We know, patience 
is virtue, works in all circumstances. It worked.

 My eldest grandson is about to awake. I am going to my kitchen. 
I will make pancakes, to surprise him. I will make for everyone. 
They all love to have. Make banana shake too.

 It is 3 pm, I am going to have shower, wash my hair too. I don't wash 
my hair every day, not many left. I will make some calls after.
I didn't have time to talk to my daughters. I will do that now. 
They must be waiting for my calls.

  I will call my younger brother and his wife. I talk to them every day. 
I call my elder sister in law, every other day. She lives in Aurora. I try 
to call couple of my club members every day, who live alone and in homes. 

 We have to share people's moments of loneliness, to give them happiness,
to make their day. We will get happiness in return. What goes around, 
comes back to you.

 I take all this like Faucets of happiness.
We have to drain, every drop from that.
This is a simple recipe of happy life.
Try that. Trust me, you will be happy.

  January 12th 2024 It is around mid of January. Time for us to, start getting snow storms. This will be off an on, for the next couple of weeks. It is 10.15, mixed sunny cloudy morning, windy too. Gusts are 38 to 48 km.  Friday used to be my work day, not today. Kids day camp is going on in the library, at my work place. I am off for the whole week. I have to find my own things to do, to get busy. From Monday, things will be back on track. I will be having my regular work hours. It is 11.45, I am getting ready to walk to Tim Hortons. I take it as my second home. I know that it is cold and windy. I am all set with gloves, stole and three layers underneath my winter coat. I will be fine. Whites Road and walkway is, all clear of snow. I see some white patches of snow, by the side of road, under trees and bushes. This is the beauty of Toronto, snow cleared right away. It looks like a usual wintry day. No snow. Everything working, normal routine. Nothing stops, so is my walk. I am at Tim H

  July 7th 2023 It is hot sunny morning, 9.15 and already 24 C, feel like 26. I woke up early, done with my breakfast. Talked to one of my daughters, my middle one, called me from Grimsby.  She was going home, done with her work. It was a brief talk. She was busy, picking up her son, on the way from school. My other daughters are still at work. They will call me later on. We talk everyday, not much, just to connect.  I am busy with my computer. No message from my childhood friend. She never skips, must be busy. She was at her son's place in Sydney, was planning to go back to Perth, to be with her daughter. She must be stuck, other matters to be resolved. Anyway we have to find our own, "Things to do", to get busy, to make our day. Don't have to wait for people's calls and messages. I am busy playing Scrabble and Card games on my computer. Computer is sort of Blessing for me. I don't know how my Mom used to pass her time without phone and computer. How come she

  June 13th 2023 Beautiful morning. Great weather. It was raining all day, yesterday. Stopped at late night. I was working, Mondays are my work days. Have to go to play Darts. It starts at 9.30 in mornings. We were thirteen all together. Picked our numbers to make teams. Two boards with four teams. Three players in each. One team was odd, I mean with four. Anyway we enjoyed. Thirteen seniors on a rainy day, out to play, to enjoy time together. Amazing at that age. Gives inner peace. Boosts will power with affirmation that we still can do it. Rain or no rain, nothing can stop, to make our day. I think, will is everything behind your motto. When there is a will, there is always a way to go ahead, to move on, to do what you want. Today is Tuesday, weather is great 18 C, a bit on a cooler side. I am off, not working on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Last week I booked my flight to England. My daughters were pushing me for that. Asking me to come, to visit. Travel is too demanding at our age. Too
