Pearls scattered in my garden

-

 







Tuesday -- Beautiful morning. Sun came out after days of rain and cloudy mornings. This is one of cold days of late October with 5 C. Trees looking great with colors of Gold, Bronze, Coffee and Copper. It was rain last night, my deck is all wet. I opened my patio door to look out, to have a feel of the breeze and to connect with the world outside. It is amazing. 

I see Dew drops sparkling under the sun. Scattered like pearls all around on the green of my garden. Beautiful view to behold, to enjoy, to cherish. This is more than enough to make my day.

Last night I didn't have good sleep. It happens at our age. Nothing to worry about. Every stage of cycle of our life is unique with it's own beauty with it's own plus and minus. Old age is like our golden era. We are already done with our responsibilities. Responsibility of raising our family and providing them food and shelter.

This is time of our own, time to relax. To do what we want. To fulfil our dreams. Work and family matters are now history. No distractions. We have all the twenty four hours at our disposal. We have a blank sheet every morning to fill the slots with whatever we want. 

Chalk out your day plan with things to do, to get happiness and to put smile on faces around. Paint your work sheet with happy moments. Try to find colors to beautify the book of story of your life.  

It is 10.30, I am in my room. My computer is switched on. Facebook page giving me an open invitation to go through the messages, to read letters of love delivered from my friends and members of my family. 

Blinds of my windows, are drawn up. I am looking through the window, enjoying the scenic view of my front garden. Magnolia tree on the left, started changing it's color. Yellow and orange looking great in between the light green. The tree across, on my neighbor's front yard, is all brick red in color. My neighborhood looks quiet. 

Cars are sitting quietly on driveways. People are working from home. Students having online classes. Things changed. This is time to wait and see. to take a break, to slow down. Red wooden bench on the side, adding up color and beauty of my garden. Two Black squirrels walking around, enjoying their morning snacks. Beautiful. Life is good. No complaints.

  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
