My sweater is a souvenir for me

March 5th 2024

Beautiful morning sunny and bright. Sun is fully awake, eyes wide open. Shining up and above in full bloom. I hanged all my heavy coats and jackets, at the back of my coat closet. It is now time to wear sweaters and something light.

I have couple of light jackets. One is very light with sky blue and navy blue combination. I got it, years ago for five pounds from Oxfam, in Grimsby. That jacket is my favorite one. It is not so hot today, it is 10 C. I have to wait, to wear this one. 

My other jacket is, with grey and black combination. My son used to wear that. It is very old. I liked it so he gave it to me. It is mine now. I have one more jacket, not so light. My son gave me as a gift. He got it from his work. 

It is 10.15, I am in my kitchen, making banana strawberry shakes for my son, my youngest grandson and for myself. We have to treat ourselves well. It motivates our body to co-operate with our day plans. There is," give and take", in all relationships. Nothing works, one sided. 

It is 11.15, I have to do my hair color. I do it myself, at home. It is 12.30, I am done with my things at home. Time to get ready for my walk. I am ready all set, wearing my fawn color sweater. This is my mother's old one. I am having it, while she is gone, no more here. This is like a souvenir for me.

I am wearing my grey and black jacket on top. We have to check weather before getting out. I check outside too, staying there for couple of minutes. It helps to decide what to wear, to make our walks enjoyable. It is good to take couple of minutes to decide before starting any action.

    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...
