Road to Canterbury

It's the 20th of August 2025. I am now at one of my daughter’s places in Rochester. I was in Camberley a day before to spend a couple of days with my youngest daughter and her family.

Camberley is about an hour and a half drive from Rochester. I will be going back to Canada on Saturday the 23rd August. Time is running out. I am busy gathering flowers of happiness from wherever I can to make my days.

Today I enjoyed my time in Canterbury. It's a 40 minute drive from Rochester. Canterbury is a beautiful place famous for one of the oldest Cathedral. I liked the city's old style architecture of the houses, and cafes. I am not so fond of high rise buildings in big cities.

It's 3.30 in the afternoon. The weather is great, not too hot. I am enjoying my walk in the High Street in Rochester. So many charity shops and cafes are here. All colors of flowers by the church are making the atmosphere scenic.The church is next to the historic castle, worth visiting.

My trip to England is nearly done. Just a couple of more days to go. I enjoyed my time with my daughters and their families. To be with your loved ones is always good, but a bit challenging.

We have to be careful not to hurt anyone's feelings. We sometimes get carried away and might not be able to keep a balance. We have to keep in mind that while appreciating one of the siblings in the family, we are not only hurting others but damaging their relationships too.

Think twice before giving any opinion on the matters related to the people in the family. We are not there to disturb the peace and harmony of the household and not to deteriorate our existing relationship.

The purpose of our visit has to be to enjoy our time and to leave good memories behind. We are here to maintain our bindings not to deteriorate our relationships. Make sure not to leave any hot feelings behind.

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 ...
