Prayers, Winter Chill, and Simple Joys of the Day

Starting my day with prayers is always a priority because it not only helps me begin the day with peace, prosperity, and positive vibes, but it also strengthens my belief in the Almighty. After finishing my prayers, I headed back home. It was a bit cold outside, and staying out was quite tough as winter had started showing its true face. The cold has made life difficult, and doctors advise staying indoors during the early morning and evening hours because exposure to such cold can increase the risk of strokes.

When I returned home and went into the kitchen, my mother was not feeling well at that time, so I stayed with my family and had breakfast. Today was my day off from the office, and I had to do all my work from home, as I needed to update some information on the portal. My boss asked me to work from home because travelling to the office would have wasted time and could have delayed the time-bound work that needed to be completed within the stipulated period.

I worked till the afternoon and had my lunch in between. In the afternoon, I went to my friend’s shop in the main market of the village and stayed there for some time. I also watched children playing cricket beside his shop. It was a real treat to watch them, as it reminded me of my childhood days. On my way back home, I bought some packets of corn, as it is my favourite food during winter. After reaching home, I put the corn in a pan, and within a few minutes the popcorn had popped and it was time to enjoy them.

I stayed inside for a while and continued doing my office work from the comfort of my home while enjoying the popcorn. It turned out to be a pleasant evening, as I again went to the market to buy some groceries and other items and got an opportunity to meet my friends there. We rarely meet because everyone is employed and we get very little time for such get-togethers. Later, I returned home with the items I had been asked to buy. After having my dinner at around 9:30 PM, I spent some time on social media to see what was happening around. At around 11:45 PM, I went to sleep and called it a day.

Thank you, have a great time ahead.
