From the window I can see Clear blue orange skies, Sunshine all across the horizon, The red roofs of the buildings, The almost bare winter trees. From the window I can hear The continuous rapture of the bird, The constant music it is making, The way the whistle is breaking into The stillness of the … Continue reading World Outside

The fifties and beyond !!!
London is the best city in the world. Two years of the fifties, things have changed for me. Some important things happened that improved my outlook on life. Hey ho, happy to have fallen. I had a fall and hurt my face very badly. If it had not been for the fall, I would have … Continue reading The fifties and beyond !!!
Gardens and flowers.
An hour away from us is a market town called Harrogate. We tend to go around this time of the year as the whole city is in full bloom. Valley Gardens looks beautiful with its flowers and trees. I do feel proud of my children when they want to be around nature and spend hours … Continue reading Gardens and flowers.
Going Down.
Sky as I came out of work. I love this time of the day. After a tiring day and completely exhausted when I saw these colours in front of me, my mood was lifted back up again. There is something magical about the sun going down. It throws amazing colours around the whole sky. At … Continue reading Going Down.
Child in you!!

The ability to wonder at your surroundings can be thrilling. Fearless to some extent, ready to have a go at things, amazement at new things.

Both of us had to stop in complete admiration and awe for nature and the water being still and producing beautiful reflections. Indeed it took our breath … Continue reading Took our breath away!

Busy lives and fast flowing days Sometimes weeks and months go by, Finding time with each other Exploring nature in our own ways. Togetherness never felt so good. Picnics and tea … Continue reading Togetherness
The Stillness.
The river, the trees, the wind, everything seemed still. Sometimes no movement feels so exhilarating. I am yet to find a better place that England especially the North east. Every town has beautiful gardens, ponds and flowers. Old people playing bowling is also a great aspect of theses community areas. Sit down even for ten … Continue reading The Stillness.
Get well soon 🥰
9 pm walk. In this pandemic era, one thing we have done a lot is walking in our local areas. There has been nothing else in the name of outings. I am grateful for the fresh surroundings we live in. People have been anxious. It is easy to tell others to be calm and that … Continue reading Get well soon 🥰
Don’t give up.
New shoot coming through. I love the orchids that we have but I was giving up on them. I went to water it thinking it is taking too much space, I saw the shoot with buds coming through. To start a morning with such optimism is all what we need nowadays. It lifted my spirits. … Continue reading Don’t give up.
