I Miss My Table Calendar

-

 








Tuesday -- Mixed sunny cloudy morning of late October. It is 10.30, I am just done with my breakfast. It is 2 C, cold day. I popped out of my Patio door to have a feel of the breeze. Walked on my deck for couple of minutes. Trees look quite, I think they are planning for the days to come. They know next month will be tough. Snow will be here any time soon. 

Some of the trees look composed and relaxed. No worries, ready to face whatever will be there. I think they believe to enjoy the moments in hand. Don't want to spoil their todays. They realize that the Recipe to lead a happy life is to live in the moment.

It is beautiful here in my back garden. Trees keep on showering Gold, Copper, Bronze and Coffee leaves on the green of my lawn. Black Squirrel is enjoying his morning snacks near the newly built wooden fence. What an atmosphere of peace and harmony around. Staying here is like time to gather the treasure moments, moments of tranquility, imparts the deep down peace and meditation.  

It is 11.15, I am in my room. I was late to start my day today. Last night my sleep was disturbed. This is sort of saga of our age. We don't have to worry about. Have to ignore and move on. I checked my table calendar. I have to wash my hair and have to do my laundry too.

Looking at my table calendar, I started thinking that, this small object has a very special place in my life. All my day plans depend on this. It manages my day to day working, directs me to do things on certain dates. Organizes and over sees all my plans.

My son use to get this table calendar for me for years from his office. This year because of Covid situation, people are working from home. I wont get my calendar this year. It used to be like an integral part of my life. Even during my travel period, I used to stuck this in my trolley. I will miss it. 

We never give value to the things, we have. We realize all that when it is taken away. Same is time. Value the moments in your hand before these are taken away and turned into your past. Past, we can not turn the page back. Whatever is gone is gone.


Dear Retirees I hope things are now settled down at your end. No Indian Anthem. No Indian people dominance. No political figures pictures. Hijab Lady and her Temple friends must now be relaxed. Everyone having good time. Reading Sessions are out of Religions and Politics. You will be writing comments like before. Everyone please show patience and tolerance. Thanks.

Dear reader was doing 2 Jobs. I hope you got your Job back. Listening to my friend the Supervisor. Not talking back and focusing on your work. 

Dear "N" I hope you still reading my Blogs. Love you.

I wish all my Dear Readers to have a great time.

    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 ...

      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...
