Love from England

It's June the 23rd, I am in a different city, in a different country, not in Toronto. 

I believe now the world has become a global village. Boundaries don't mean anything. Just a map on the paper.

Mixed families with different castes and creeds. Schools, colleges, universities and at work places, we come across with all sorts of people at the same premises.

World is quite different from the time we were brought up. Classrooms with familiar faces of the kids from our neighborhood. Small town where everyone used to know everyone. Such a peaceful atmosphere. No hustle, no bustle, no rushing. Lots of time in hand. No pressure to finish up things right away.

Time changed. Things change with time. Every era is not the same as the previous one. My mom also used to say that it has changed so much from her time. I think change is the beauty of life.

Anyway, I am In England at my daughter's place. I started my journey from Toronto on the night of 20th June from the Pearson airport and arrived around noon the next day at theGatwick Airport. My daughter, the youngest one, was there to pick me up with her husband.

It took two and half hours to reach her place at Camberley. London is a busy city with so much traffic on roads. It's not easy to predict the arrival time. Usually the travel time on roads is much more than predicted.

My daughter just changed her house. It is a different one than I used to come. Not in Reading, it is now In Camberley. Beautiful place. It's 11.30, my daughter is at work at school. I am done with my breakfast, sitting in the back garden.

 Nice shady area at the corner under tall trees and hedges around. So much green. Beautiful dark blood Lillie's, pink an white Roses. Nice breeze loaded with all the aroma and fragrance from around. Lucky me, I am enjoying every bit of it.

It's a Beautiful Day

    It's Tuesday, I have my day off. I don't work on Tuesdays. Monday was a close holiday because of Victoria day.  She helped Canada to make the Charter of Democracy. We remember that and celebrate. Everything was closed and only eateries were open. I enjoyed my time in Tim Hortons. It was a very long weekend for me. I will go to work tomorrow to play Darts. I believe work is like a blessing. It helps us to organize our lifestyle. We don't have to worry about how to spend our time. It helps us to be productive and also keeps us away from negativity. Schools are the same to impart a positive change in our life. We have no issues in the earlier days of our life, how to organize ourselves and to chalk out our day programs. In the later stages, we have to find hobbies to be active. Our health issues start coming up with our age. We have to keep that in mind while choosing our activities. We don’t have to be too ambitious while making our plans. With time our ne...

From Camberley to Kent

          Now I am on a road trip for a while, I  was at my youngest daughter's place in Camberley.  Last night I came to Kent at my other daughter's house. Her son picked me up. He came with his younger brother. Insisted me to have the front seat. Lucky me. Kent is a small historical town. I like its High Street. At one end of the street are the old castle and Church. This Church is the second oldest after Canterbury Church. I like to walk around. The castle is sort of challenging for me to walk uphill. I like the beautiful interior architecture of the Church. Such a peaceful atmosphere to sit for a while. On the High Street there is Morley bakery and Coffee House. It was established in 1985. I like to sit there to enjoy tea over there. I like historical places.  So many Charity shops are all lined up on the High Street, I like Charity shops. So many antiques to look around. I feel that time stopped, taking me back to have a feel of...

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 ...
