The family vacation maybe over but the holidays for the children is still on, as schools reopen only in September.Despite the fact that we all seem to be thoroughly exhausted in the company of summer,we are in some way coping the hot and humid weather.With the prevailing weather condition in this part of the world,there is n’t much outdoor activities to get occupied except take part in religious activities like reading the holy book and offering extra prayers as this is the holy month of Ramadan,which by the way,will come to an end in the next few days.And soon, we can expect some fair weather.It is always the case during the latter part of summer time,when the holiday spirits begin to wear off and all that extra time that you hold so precious,seem to drift so soon.And almost immediately you start to brood over the lost time.
Summer makes me wonder,ponder and beyond.At the onset,as much as the season brings with it the holiday spirit,goodwill and cheer, it also ignites a lot of physical strain on us during the closing stage.By the way I am not being unreasonable,I still hope to enjoy the rest of the holidays in optimism.
Looking on the bright side,it’s apparent that Summer has not been very harsh on me.In addition to the exhilaration of our three week vacation to the pearl of the Indian ocean( Sri Lanka),I am also ecstatic at some of the other things that summer has freshened me up with.It has enabled me to mentally remove a few redundant anarchism and enjoy the rest of the season with a clear mind set.My sugar level is well under control and the daily exercising has brought in some good results.I have lost a few more pounds and have gained high energy levels.So you can just imagine alongside the hustle and the bustle of summer,how contentedly I am marching around the house with equally energetic children.
This Summer I also tried my hands at new recipes catering to the family’s tastes buds.Some recipes came out quite well while a few didn’t turn out as expected.That didn’t give me a reason to sign.I gave the dishes a new name and felt happy about my achievement.On the whole,Summer has taught me to approach things in a positive manner and I am grateful for that.
