(Holidays & Sundays)

Continued from Last Blog. dated : 14.09.11

Generally people spend a large amount of money to purchase things or services to make them Happy, they have to move outside of Home to get enjoyment. They go to parties, join some clubs, gradually they start spending quality time outside their home.


If they do not understand reasons well in time, they make distances with their family in the pursuit of Happiness. Sometimes they have to seek advise of Consultant to explore Enjoyment in daily life.


During weekdays, it is hard to share ample time with family members, but we can utilize Sundays and holidays to bridge the gap and meet family grievances by spending quality time with them. It would not only make them happy, you would also share this big deal too.

I am submitting some tips, these are practical ones , most importantly … very economical ones, you have to be with family and mind the given suggestions.. 

Morning :

• Surprise your spouse with bed tea, Remember that aroma and taste of the tea should be better.
• Go for a long walk. Feel the beauty and greenery of nature.
• Spend sometime in your garden, involve kids, plant some new flowers, teach them Gardening techniques.
• Organize your Home, remove clutter from your desk, maintain separate files for important documents.
• Wash your vehicle, ask kids to clean their cycle, roller skates etc too.
• Enjoy bathing with kids, teach them to arrange their cloths and accessories,
• Enjoy a family Breakfast with lot of chit-chat conversation.

Noon

• Take account of kids studies, check their notebooks and teacher's comments. 
• Teach something new to your kids to enhance their creativity.
• Call your friends and relatives whom you miss a lot. Delete unnecessary sms and phone no from your mobiles.
• Do something to speed up your PC/ laptop , as like disk cleanup and defragmentation.
• Watch some knowledgeable content on TV channel.
• Join your spouse in kitchen with kids , Cook some new receipe and enjoy Family lunch.
• If you love and miss naps after lunch on weekdays, you can enjoy 2-3 hours sleep also, if not interested with Sleeping, Read a good Book..

Evening

• Play a game of cricket or hockey with family members and kids. Involve your neighbors and their kids too. You will get a chance to know them also, who used to play regularly with your kids.Train them the basics of the game too if you can.
• Motivate your spouse to learn driving scooter  / 4 wheeler etc, if she is not skilled.
• Visit local worship place to participate in prayer, teach kids about spiritual ritual and beliefs being followed in society.
• Go for shopping , your spouse would love too, it may be that during week days, she has to go for shopping alone. Two person can make a good deal and bargain effectively.
• Visit local grocery store with your kids and let them learn about identifying quality vegetables, fishes, meat etc.
• Pay visit to your local  old aged relative, spend some time with them.
• Visit to your new neighbor and enjoy tea during introduction. You can develop your relationship as new family friend. A good neighbor is as good as a good relative or friend.
• Arrange a common prayer session of your family members.
• Enjoy movie at local multiplex or you may opt for watching a new DVD at your home also.

Most important thing, never miss a chance to chat with your wife as and when you feel free. Don't think about place or time to start the conversation, just be with her and share her ideas and feelings regarding several issues. She can inform you about your kids good and bad habits, their performance at school etc.

She will be happier, you may explore hidden aspects of her personality and she would enjoy your company all the way.I am insisting on this point because I have experienced that We should respect the individuality of our spouse. Our likes and dislikes may be different, but we can share the feelings. She bears greater responsibly to perform, we must explore the ways to please her. She can make your day.. she can be inspiration behind your success. After all She is the "Better Half"   of our life.

 I have learnt that people who seek "Happiness" outside their home and love to spend quality time with outsiders (persons , not in the group of family or friends), they have to suffer and remain restless in future too 

All the mentioned tips would enrich your life with enjoyment directly or indirectly, sooner or later. You must give these tips a try.. no side effect at all. I repeat and  insist  explore "Happiness" inside your Home, along with family members. The Gods of happiness are all around you... your spouse and kids. If you belong to a joint family, then  its a BONUS for your Happy life. 

Wish you all good luck and happy life.

You can help your kids to improve their table manners and etiquettes too.

              

Read a story to your kids to help them for sleeping. Watch their innocence if they get asleep in the middle of the story.

Go to bed early and have a sound sleep, it is necessary to have 6-8 hours sound sleep for a working professional. Late night TV watching should be avoided, If you love to write Diary, you may give some time to this hobby too before switching off lights.

I would welcome your comments and suggestions on the subject.

An Open letter to a Friend

Dear Friend,

How r you? I miss you so much. I am sorry I could not send you cards to greet on the occasion of friendship day.

There are several occassions of daily routine, when I remember you. Some of the moments are :

1. When I sip a cup of coffee alone,
2.When I hear a song of a new artist and wish to get your comment.
3. When I am walking on road alone.
4. When I wish to get rid of a confusion to do or not to do (I remember sometimes u used to toss a coin and let the matter decided by God).
5. When I experiment with a recipe at home on holidays, I know , you also loved innovative cooking.
6. When I can not decide to take care of pets (whether it is fish or love birds).
7. When I get hurt by any one of my close family member, I need your shoulder .
8. When I hesitate to share my feelings and strategy with my wife also .
9. When I sit under the clear sky and star gazing at night, I need to discuss about ET, Aliens and possibility of Life except our mother earth, some times I share my curiosity with my kid.
10. When I think something new about financial planning and early retirement.
11. Whenever I achieve something in my life due to my hard work +inspiration and suggestions by you.

There are many other regular and special moments also, when I observe a son-father, brother-brother, kids-mother cordial relationship and I remember you.

Sometimes you are the only Answer when we can't discuss something with our elders and can not ask from brothers and sisters.

I wish and will pray to God for my Kids to get a real Friend as like you.

May god bless you with a successful and happy life. Keep moving on with good health, you have a vital role to play, you have to inspire people to be a good human being and a Good friend. Every body needs a friend, he may be of any age, any caste or from any background.
