Too Blessed to be Stressed | Celebrating Life!

in GEMS4 years ago

Any kind of festive/celebration means there will be a lot going on, we will be stressed about arranging, managing so many things. I know we all miss the good old days. Now in this pandemic, it's a little thought to enjoy festive the way we want. But we always can find ways to make it special. After all, no one likes to stuck in their house and pass a boring day, no?

It's a festive time. We are celebrating Eid (the biggest Muslim Festival). Though it was on 14th May, from today everyone has to attend office. But the mood is still on, there are still festive food leftovers in the fridge!

So let's see, what was on my day!

My day usually starts with taking care of my plants. I recently brought a Blue Pigeon wings flower and it started to bloom. There are three flowers so far, it's a blessing to see them bloom and the plants growth.

Isn't it beautiful?

I went to a nearby place for some grocery shopping with my son, a few days ago. There we found a mini shop that was selling birds in cages. I never liked the idea of keeping birds in a cage like a pet, they are meant to fly.

Look at the sad face, it says it all how unhappy the region is in the cage!

While coming back home, we found a plant nursery. It's not big but they have a good collection of plants. I was checking in to see if I could buy something for my garden.

This Bottle Palm three catches my eyes, I wish I could have enough space to plant it in front of my house. Maybe someday...

On 16th May, during the afternoon, we went outside to have some food. It's been a while, our taste buds almost forget what restaurant food actually tastes like. Because of this recent lockdown, we are mostly staying at home. This place is called 'Pasta Club', I really enjoyed their environment as well as the food.

After coming back home, I noticed that I forgot to apply Henna to my hands. I mean, without henna it doesn't feel like Eid, no? So I sat for a while and create a simple henna art over my hand. I will share the detailed process with pictures of applying henna on my hands.

So the days are passing really well, I could say that. And we are blessed to have this.

After a long while, it was a day full of different activities. As I was saying, nowadays we mostly stay inside and do indoor activities. But Eid bought us the opportunity to have some fun. As the city is less crowded, many went to their hometown and leave this capital so it felt a little safer to went outside.

Enjoy and celebrate your life!
