Red Cardinals and Black Squirrel

-

 







It is 9.15, I am done with breakfast, enjoying my morning tea on the deck. Great view of beautiful morning. Spring showering it's glamour all around. I can hear, birds having chit chat, must be making plans to eat out. They know, we have to follow the directives, have to keep social distancing. They will manage.

It was raining last night. Everything looks great after having shower. We have three bird feeders in our back garden. Red small birds, the Northern Cardinals keep coming on one of the feeder. Squirrel also enjoying the free treat. Yesterday I noticed two small Brown Rabbits were here too. They are regular visitors for couple of years, in spring time.

It is 10.15, time to go to my room, to be with my computer, to connect with my family and friends. We have to divide our day into slots, to get busy, to live in day tight compartment. To not to leave any space for negative thoughts. This keeps us on right track, away from thinking negative. 

Keep your day plan ready before hand. It is important at our age. When we are working, our time table is all set. We have to go to work or have to go school. We have fixed timing, set day plans. When we are retired, things are totally changed. We have to chalk out our own time table. Have to make our own plans to get busy.

We can not let, rest of the years of our life, to go to waste, to go down the drain. We have to take our retirement age, as an era of accomplishment. A period to make our dreams to come true. To find hobbies. We have now time for all this. Our assignments, our obligations, all done. No more time pressure. We have time for our own self, to do what we like to do. Let's celebrate. 

I have to do my hair color, haven't done for long. Have to change my bed sheets, will do laundry tomorrow. Weather is great. I have opened my window to feel the breeze. Amazing. We don't have to set mile stones to achieve. Just do what you like. No pressure. No one is there to check our progress. We are not at work. We are retired. Take it easy, just relax.

    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...
