Treasure Buried Deep Down

 !7th September 2022

I am enjoying in Edmonton, at my daughter's place. Bright sunny cold day. It is 9.30, 10 C in the morning, windy too. I am already done with my breakfast. It was great, so many things on table. She made pancakes loaded with all sort of fresh berries, stir fried egg, toasted bread, butter, jam, orange juice. I was feeling great, sitting with my loved ones around. 

My grandson was with me too. He is in third year Uni. He must be busy with studies, assignments and with his own things, like all youngsters. It is great of him to take some time off for her old grandma. Whenever they can make it. We have to give them credit and admire them. Moments for me to lock up in my memory box, to enjoy after.

It is 10.15, I am sitting in my daughter's back garden, enjoying the scenic view around and also my morning cup of tea. Couple of Black and white birds enjoying their morning walk, are busy, having chit chat with their friends. I found out, these are "Magpies". Looking beautiful, giving color and adding up life around. All sort of Sunflowers, Gold, Rust, Maroon, in different shapes and sizes, adding up beauty of the garden. 

It is very quiet here. Can't here any traffic, so different from my town, Toronto. Like we Humans, every city has it's own individuality, it's own beauty. God keeps on providing His Creatures, different flavors, to enjoy their time.

It is very busy for me. Time is short. I am leaving on Monday. One more day to go. My late friend's family lives here in Edmonton. Forty years back, they used to live next to our house. They were kids at that time. Now they have their ow families, living in their own houses, in different parts of city.

They all want to invite me. I am enjoying their company, talking about old days, spent together. Sharing memories, is like gathering treasures. Digging out beautiful moments, buried deep down, somewhere at the back of our mind. It is amazing to have a feel and to revive all that. Like a Rainbow. Like to enjoy a reflection at the surface of stagnant water. Amazing.

    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...
