A whole day of intense work then a quick stir fry on the hob, dinner done within minutes and then reached a meeting. Somehow the day got extremely busy, testing every limit of my emotional, physical and social being. I don't like feeling too rushed. When the meeting was finished, I left without eating as … Continue reading Stillness when busy.

Life is a dream!
Great Ayton Village We were feeling sluggish yesterday afternoon so decided to go for coffee in a nearby village, Great Ayton. In fact we go there often for walks. There is a coffee/ ice cream shop called Suggits. Inevitably there are long queues outside so out of our reach. We always walk past. But we … Continue reading Life is a dream!
Seaside
It was sunset time without the sun, There were clouds covering the sky, There was no wind and temperatures were warm, The Sea showed all its tricks to catch the eye. Waves were huge in the deep sea, They curled and whirled to rise high, And growled upheavals, Lashed around in every direction, Hitting boulders, … Continue reading Seaside

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.
Took our breath away!
River Tees, Yarm. A perfect circle from the bridge in the water, the willow tree and The Blue Bell Pub, came across this while walking with my daughter. 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!
Togetherness
Aysgarth Falls The roar of the waterfalls Lifelessness of the green moss Wind blown tress with bare branches Golden paths of the fallen leaves. 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

A family tradition that we do. Of course, it was very cold but we were well equipped. I wore my … Continue reading Being Silly !!
