August 9th 2024

It is one of hot humid days of early August. We know that our summer days are about to be over. Just couple of weeks left to enjoy our outdoors. It was raining since early morning, still drizzling. I am having my breakfast, indoor, sitting in my eat in kitchen area. 

My back garden is looking great. Grass all lush green. Two pink Canadian Roses are there, smiling, enjoying the drizzle, I think. 

Blood red, deep purple, golden yellow and white, all seasonal flowers look happy, enjoying the scenic atmosphere around. 

It is 10. 15, I am in my room, sitting beside my computer, browsing my Face book messages. I am also enjoying the view outside, of my front garden. Red wooden bench is looking beautiful, washed and clean, shining on the left side of my garden, beside the Magnolia tree.

It is green all around. What a scenic view. Trees are loaded with green. No one can even imagine that these loaded trees will be transformed into skeletons in about couple of month.

Time flies. Things go on changing. Try to value whatever is there. We never know for how long, it will be available. Rain just stopped. It can start anytime. There is 60% chances of rain prediction for the day, in forecast. I am getting ready to get out for my walk to Tim Horton, to my second home.

My daughter in law's brother's family is at my place, visiting for a week from Houston. My family is making plans to take them to Central Island and C N Tower. I am going to enjoy my own time.

We have to give space to others to enjoy. It works to maintain harmony in household. Don't have to intrude into others privacy. 

It is 11.15, I am at Whites Road. Wild flowers of all colors are looking beautiful, by the side of walkway. Couple of birds are having chit chat on tree top, nearby. Rain drops are sparkling on grass, by the side.

It started drizzling, I am half way to Tim Horton, enjoying the drizzle. It reminds me of my childhood days. My mom used to call me, " come inside, you will get sick ". I never paid any attention to it. It now keeps on reminding from back of my mind. 

Our loved ones are gone, still they are here with us around. We can feel their presence. We use to take things for granted, when we have. Same with people, miss when they are gone.

    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...
