  Tuesday -- Bright beautiful hot morning 29 C, will be 34 later in the afternoon. It is 9.15, I am in my room, done with my breakfast, enjoying my morning tea. My computer is on, Facebook page is opened, all messages are in front, at my disposal, to pick and choose. It is tough to categorize, to place in order, to decide, which message to read first. I know nobody watching.  They wont know who is going to be the first and who will be the last. Still I feel embarrassed, guilty. Not easy to make any decision. It is like, I am secretly marking their worksheets, without their knowledge. I think what we feel inside, is the only thing, which matters. We can cover up for others, but not for our own self. In the heart of heart, we know, what we talking, what we thinking and also aware of, when we try to manipulate things for our face saving.  We can say things to the people, using our speech skills, our power of words, to convince others.

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...

It was night time I was going with my son to pick my grandson from Hockey game it was cloudy so was pitch black We were passing through the street lined both sides with trees it was a two track highway so trees looked like not so far away I opened my window to smell and to breathe in real fresh air I was lucky I smelled a very strong odor sure skunk must be around somewhere here It gave me very different feeling feeling of passing through the Real Woods trees were very quiet may be already asleep Stillness all around so calm so peaceful wind also moving with caution making sure not to stir and  disturb the serene atmosphere  We see different shades of Nature  this is a Solemn one not the Joyous mood of the Morning God is Gracious to provide us a variety of taste and flavor and also vibrant scenic views to behold and enjoy and be Thankful

My Trip to England is coming closer so many things are in the back of my mind what to pack, which medicines I have to take small gifts and how much weight I am allowed I am feeling pressure of all the small things when you feel pressure it is easy to get your sleep disturbed Our body is so connected with our mind anything out of rhythm makes a big difference But we are human not Robot so have to tackle our stress , pressure emotions or whatever is there we have to face our changing circumstances In the mornings I take my 5 minutes  stretch and body revival time I am doing my walk as my physical exercise and as my meditation time to enjoy the Nature the green of plants the birds every bit of it which God graciously made available to behold and enjoy I am talking to my mind to calm it down and saying No pressure please " This too Shall Pass " I believe it will

Problems lies within you solution lies within you nobody coming forward to solve anything for you most of the time problems are due to the people around you we can not change anything in our life But we can change everything in our life with our attitude change in attitude will make all the difference while nothing be changed with your positive attitude everything be the same still your negativity will not be there Self pity is the worst admire yourself never blame or criticize everyone keeps criticizing you pointing their fingers at you please put your finger down while going to bed count the things you made possible to solve if you have changed difficult moments into moments of peace for yourself give credit to yourself and count don't forget to thank God for giving you power, ability and health to do things for yourself you will have good night sleep

I love people even if I am not connected I have a feel for the buzzing crowd I feel good walking on the road the traffic passing by give me a feel that I am not alone  people are around me nobody wants to be alone at least not me  I am a people person I can spend my whole day in a mall small crowded places are my favorites rather than big and deserted ones faces of all kinds make me happy voices to me like music you don't have to listen what are they talking and stare their faces you can feel the whole atmosphere you will forget all your problems  all of your worries your world will be at standstill for a while It will be like a meditation for your body and soul you will be in the moment feeling free from everything those moments are precious  go for it I do that and highly recommend you as a friend

Our birth is a beginning and life is a journey we pass through different stages of life Our body starts showing up all the effects from our day today wear and tear The most damaging effect is from our Negative thinking We have to adjust ourselves every moment according to our circumstances If we are living with families, keep in mind they have their own priorities , activities, interests friends and above all their immediate family husband / wife and kids Don't be demanding  acknowledge and admire whatever they do Everyone needs appreciation We have to adapt , try to fit in change your attitude and push yourself to find something positive every day Don't complain as complaints are never welcomed admire yourself for making adjustments Be gentle and supportive to yourself praise and give gifts to yourself anything which you love and enjoy a walk, a hot cup of tea / coffee Go shopping we have to make our day Don't comp...

2011  I was coming back from back home to Canada at the airport terminal while I had to checkout my luggage I was worried it might be overweight A porter was helping me out and I started talking to him about that This is my weakness I mean to talk to people I love to communicate and to initiate conversation  It makes me happy I enjoy that I asked the Porter to please pray for my pleasant Trip and that not be any problem with my luggage His quick reply was that those people who talk with others nicely can not have any problem God always takes care of them and makes things done for them I am sure I will never see him in my life I can not recognize him even if I ever see him Still he is always in the back of my mind Whenever anything good happens to me or any problem is averted  his words get refreshed I think these people are like Rainbow in our life When our Life gets clouded they emerge in our memories to make us feel ...

Today a  unique day in my life  I got the News that my first Granddaughter is engaged and to be married this summer My daughter called me from England Her voice f ull of joy  She was looking forward and making all the big plans I was happy after a while started feeling that all of a sudden I am getting much older It is difficult to accept that days are done for you It is a very hard fact I still love to be called "Golden Girl " It is always tough to face the reality and that It is time to leave the stage for the next generations to come We have to face it with dignity I know it is ridiculous to be alarmed I feel ashamed of myself so no need to letting anyone know about this This will be a deep down secret in my heart I was thinking about my Mom how much weight of all the secrets she must be carrying throughout her life   Facing with dignity I never got any clue of any of that She was always a Gre...
