Thought Of The Day

  Friday -- Beautiful sunny hot morning 23 C, will be 33 later in the evening. These are couple of  hot days for we Canadians. To enjoy our short summer period, to get out, to go to lakes. August is running out, September is just around the corner. We have to make use of our time in hand. We are aware of that. We are doing whatever we can. Hitting the roads and visiting the lakeside like rituals.   It is 9.15, I am done with my five minutes exercises. My computer is on for me, to browse the favorite sites. My Blog site is the first one, to check the number of hits. These hits are very important, denote each of my Reader. Comments on my Blog are like cherry on top, like direct lines, to connect with my Readers Family. Next is my Facebook site, to get aware of, that how many of my friends and family member are eager to connect.Their messages matter a lot to me. I have to answer them back first thing after having my breakfast. Breakfast is like giving treats to my body,...

  Thursday -- Bright beautiful sunny morning 24 C, will be 34 later in the afternoon. Another hot day. It is 7.45, I am out of bed. First thing I do is, to switch on my computer. Browse to have a quick look to check what is going on there for me to deal after. I mean, how many messages are there, what is the weather, what are the News Headlines. I don't go through everything, just browse to get an outline of the things around.  Next thing is my five minutes stretch exercises on my bed room carpet. This is to unwind my body, to wake it up, to move on and to cooperate with my day onward. Your body listens but you have to take the first step. We have to move forward to show that we care.  I think if we take the first step to go ahead to show our goodwill gesture, things always go smooth. No issues. We have to put our ego aside to come forward, to lend our hand to others.  We Humans are social animals. We all look forward to build relationships with our other fellow Huma...

  Friday -- Bright beautiful sunny morning 21 C now, will be 28 later  in  the  evening. It is 9.30, I am sitting in the TV lounge, having my  morning  tea,  watching Headline News and enjoying the scenic view of  my  back  garden,  through the glass panels in front. It is 10.15, I am in my room with my computer to browse my  Facebook  messages. These messages will connect me to my friends  and  family to  be with their  company and with them to share my moments. My room plays a very important role in my life. Specially that corner of my  room, where my table is placed. My computer, which is important piece of my life, is on the table. On the side of the table is the window, which works for me sort of lookout.  This window is like window of opportunity for me. From here I am able to view my front garden.  I can  connect with the world outside. I am able to have a feel that I am part ...

It is 7 in the morning  a different scenery today very light pinkish hue emerging at the bottom of the dark sky which becomes grey while meeting the pinkish borderline  just above the dark roofs of houses Trees, road and driveway all trying to emerge to give their clear picture  I switched my computer on to check my Face book messages from my Daughters in England and from my friend  in  Sydney  My friend's cousin is in hospital she was worried because of him I started thinking that  how strong are we ? or how weak we are as nothing is in our power  All is guided and controlled from the Power above and High our mind and our body and all body parts are under His control We are here for a given time allotted and with the power which is considered to be given we have to act accordingly We forget everything and start boasting taking each of our success stories as our own accomplishment whole of...

In the  morning I was waiting for Bus # 120 just two days back it was 28 and sunny I had to take shelter behind the electric pole from the scorching Sun In Canada sun rays come direct because of Ozone Hole and it is burning and uncomfortable in hot summer days It is 19 and cloudy today so I am taking the shelter behind that electric pole to escape the wind and cold weather How quickly things change same like our Life  Kids grow so fast finish their schooling and Nest is empty We have to value each and every Moment to drain it out to our utmost satisfaction What goes around comes around but I think not true for everything like our age which moves on We have to celebrate whatever time left and use it with our full capacity by using all the means we have in our power so let us Celebrate Our Today
