Weather is getting tricky

 March 12th 2024

It is mixed sunny warm wintery day. Tough choices for us to make, what to wear, to get out, on these days. Warm under sun, cold under shade. It is 12.30, I am going for my walk, standing beside my coat closet. I have to select something suitable from the stock. 

I picked my black and grey jacket to wear. It looked perfect, not too light, not too heavy. I took my red woolen stole too for just incase. I walked for a while, was about to enter Whites Road. I was not comfortable, feeling a bit cold. I gave a second thought to my jacket. I think, have to go back to change for a heavy one. I got my black hoody.

I am on the way to Tim Hortons. I am missing my gloves, my hands are cold. I keep one pair of gloves in all my coats and jackets, how come I missed this one. Anyway, we learn lessons out of all this. Next time I will be careful to check things before getting out. 

My daughter, my youngest one is calling me from Reading. I have to cross Whites Road, have to take Sheppard, to go to Coffee House. Timer just started. I have 20 seconds to cross, enough time to take call, while I am crossing, it can be managed.

We don't have to miss calls from our kids. They are busy with work and family. We have to take their calls on top priority. It is great, they take time to talk to we parents. Their call is more than enough to make our day. 

My son just told me that there is Coyote, around in our area. He saw one, while coming back from his walk. He was worried about me, asking me to be cautious, reminded me to give a call, when I reach Coffee House.  

I am here, have to call my son. My daughter is still on call, talking to me, I will add my son to connect him too. We feel lucky while our kids get worried about our health and safety. We have to appreciate in whatever way, they express their feelings. Every individual is different. Some can express, some not.

We don't have to judge them. Never have to compare, it won't be good for siblings relationship. It is good to see our family intact. We have to keep filters on, while talking to them about each other. Family binding is priority. We have to keep that in mind.

    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...

Nature is great

     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...
