Take a Back Seat it is Their Time

-

 

Tuesday, 9.15, beautiful sunny cloudy morning, 6 C, not so cold. My deck is all wet, must be raining early morning. Yesterday was also raining off and on. April is nearly done. Just couple of more days to go. Not even a week left to start planning for what to plant in our flower bed. 

My son and my daughter in law will make decisions, what to plant to color our garden. None of my business. I am done with all that. Enjoyed enough in my life. Let them enjoy. It is time for our younger generations to enjoy. It is their time. We have to take a back seat. Have to give them space, to play around, to do and enjoy with whatever they want. 

Family is like a Bouquet, so is the Household, we live in. We, members have to make sure not to disturb peace and harmony around. Being elders, we have more responsibility, to track that everyone has space to enjoy his privacy. We don't have to cross our limits. Have to keep ourselves away from trespassing on other people's private territory. 

Mind your own business and focus on your things to do, is the key, to spread happiness in households and all other places, we are part of, like our workplace and schools. Have patience, be calm and try to put smile on the faces around. You will get happiness out of that. What goes around, comes back to you. So simple. No worries., relax and enjoy your life.

It is 10.30, I am in my room, checked my table calendar. I have to do my hair color today. I did it couple of weeks back. It is time now. I mark my things to do in my calendar. Like when to change my bed sheets, my towels, to do laundry and such things. It helps me a lot, easy to track. At my age, not easy to remember all that.

It is 11.45, I am busy with my hair color. My youngest daughter calling me from Reading. She is busy in her kitchen, making beef patties. She loves baking and gardening. She is back from work. It is afternoon at her place in England.

It is 12.30, I am done with my hair, going to my kitchen to make something for my son and for myself. I will make egg sandwiches for him, I will have butter toast with orange marmalade, to enjoy with my cup of tea. I am not so hungry. We have to listen to our body. Have to go with that, otherwise, our body wont listen to us. 

There is always give and take in all relationships. Nothing works one sided. Same goes with your body. Respect everyone's feelings, to have peace and to enjoy your time. Live and let others live their own life. Make others happy, to get happiness in return. Life is too short. Enjoy your time and let others enjoy too.

  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
