Merry Christmas and

Happy New Year

to all my Dear Readers

May God bring all the Blessings. Happiness in Good Health. To everyone of you. Amen

It will be another New Year in just couple of days. We will make new resolutions, hard to follow. Everyone will be carried away, to go to Gym, follow Diet plans, to follow all good habits, to improve healthy living. That is good, still please be realistic. Don't be too ambitious, too hard to work out. Such plans will die down in couple weeks after. Not easy to cope up with.

 Anyway, plan in your way. Do whatever you like to chalk out, to make your days. I think plans to bring colors and joy in your life, will matter most. Of course taking your health into account. Health is priority for everyone, not only for we seniors.

Peace and harmony is also one of the key factor, specially in households. One of my friend is having tough times. Everyone in her house facing very tough situation. Same sibling rivalry, is now getting out of hands. Siblings are not kids anymore, they are fully grown ups, working at good position. That adds up the severity. No one, easy to back down, as at that age, you can not be flexible. 

Maturity develops personalities with their own firm beliefs and habits. You don't like to listen that " It was your fault, you have to go first to solve ". Parents become helpless, have no choice, no options to dissolve the conflict. Kids don't care for each other. They say, we are fine, will have no communications, we won't miss anything. 

Gravity of the conflict, starts getting worse. The entire atmosphere starts changing, within no time. Not the same family, no eating together, everything goes down the drain. You developed all that, worked hard for your entire life. To build up a happy family, living together with bonding and relationships. Nothing there. 

We have to take every child seriously, while developing his character, his personality. Everyone is unique. Don't have to take them like a bunch of kids. Deal with everyone of them, separately. Try to respect, listen to them carefully and try to understand, how they feel. Parenting is not tough. Just try to be in their shoes.

I hopes things must be fine with you people. Please try to be patient. Respect the Directives. Respect everyone's opinion and personal matters. Let everyone to live his own life. Don't be judgmental. Thanks.

  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
