A Tiny Bouquet Of Small Joyful Moments

Hey amazing hearts! 
Hope beating up gratefully on positive rhythm. 

Our winter is leaving quickly :( yes despite the age protest against cold season still winter is loveable and so much welcomed by people of southern Pakistan sindh where summer is longer ( up to nine months sometimes though eight mostly) and horrible. Sweating season make everyone insane almost. So winter seems to us like a desired guest who is wanted and appreciated by all :) Though we want it to stay little longer guest has reached to the door and waving to goodbye. 
I know there are some terrible things happened in my homeland as well but I believe that my words about such traumatic events here can not do any good but only be way to spread sorrow and make more heart heavy so I will try to stick with theme of my blog that reflects my innate attitude towards life. And it is share happiness always because it doubles when do so and keep troubles to yourself because it shows your ultimate Faith on Divine presence who'support is delivered to you when you rely on it. It works fine for me until now. But you all know that I speak about my life issues though not as problem but a test I am going through :) 
Sharing below few pleasant moments dear friends. Hope they will cheer you up too. 


       As I mentioned sometimes that despite many squirrels visit my small garden everyday but they never let me take pictures and run up to the tree when I try to take one from far even. But few days back when I was having second cup of tea after hubby left for the office. One of them running and playing around came and climbed the plant calmly. She even sat there as I couldn't believe my eyes she did so. I put cup on bench and ran inside hastily. Picked up my phone and came close to the plant slowly. She didn't move but seemed she pose for me. I felt concerned f while if something was wrong with her but as I clicked she run down and then upto the tree. I zoomed little. Sor for dim resu my phone camera has become older like me 

    After returning from Karachi we went to see our niece ( daughter of hubby 's sister) who lost her baby when it was one month remained in delivery. We were late though due to our stay in Islamabad, then long sickness,lengthy rainy season and then construction work (3 months). But thank goodness she knew all was real. It was her first baby and both parents were very happy and excited but In fourth of pragnancy she fell loose motion and high fever. Doctors apologized for further treatment as they said she came late when intestinal infection could not be treated. That made her condition worse.parants her husband and whole family was disappointed and prepared to see heartbreaking concequences but as they say that life is death is held by higher power. After losing all hopes one day her husband took to Larkana big city four hours away from khairpur. Doctors told she has to admit immediately. She stayed at hospital for one week and then she, visited once in a week and she recovered withina month. After hearing all the story I asked why doctors who were seeing her refused at first. Her mother told that they asked for huge amount of money two lacs otherwise they cannot do anything. She told despite of all transportation expenses the treatment from Larkana remained below one lac. Such stories shock my soul to core. The doctors who had luxurious life already could not be sensitive to realize the value of another life sadly. I think greed is worst curse given to heartless. She has time left so God saved her though through different source. And this is great by the grace of God indeed 

     You can see her behind all in blue scarf on right 

      My. Most fav view. Lush, soothing and with winter 's comforting sunshine :) 

 We had Lees hope  to see spring blooms this year due to all the long construction work and sever disturbance by things and workers. But we were really happy to see that some of the plants have started to bloom which is amazing. 


Trying to give you idea how big this painting is. We have bought it from Karachi tho we had no idea how we will manage to carry through all the heavily crowded railway platform, then up into train vagan where people are completely unfamiliar with tern "que" and where we will place this 3by3 frame as berth itself is hardly two or few centimeter wide. Yet we can say that to make Impossible, possible all we need is desire, determination and above all focus with consistency and God helps you by aligning universe to support you. OK enough rants. Miraculously we could do it by leaving a berth assigned for painting and we tied it up with berth pipe. 



We wandered In many painting shops that day. I wanted most of them lol but I had bought many books before that so I knew budget was tight. So I filtered this one finally. It had positive glow that seemed uplifting to me :) 

Thanks for reading precious people! 

Please keep taking great care of yourself in all possible ways! 
Health, peace and happiness to you and to loved ones!

A Little Review Of My Recent Read "The Book Of Why" By Judea Pearl


I am reading "the book of why" by Judea Pearl these days that i have bought from Karachi .Actually i was struck by it's name instantly and i think anyone with curious mind might have have reacted similarly who is interested to learn "what causes what and why?)  
But opposite to my expectation book had topic which i was less interested or you can say that i consider myself  a beginner for such complicated and intense topic which offers much technical details and terms. I know you must be thinking that i should have read the reviews page before buying it actually i did but i probably was led by own optimistic intuition while reading reviews on the back of last page and i could not ponder further than what words told ,i took the meaning what i wanted to hear. 



 But i can't say i found it complete " loss " of money and my time i give it to read . As a person who loves everything about life cannot disappoint with any kind of learning that "add" to her knowledge some how .

So despite the little shock i felt at the beginning i found this book worth reading specially for those who hardly liked math ,statistics and measurements of  various phenomena such as affects of pandemics , factors affecting human health like obesity of cholesterol etc.

Author explains expertly how old statistician used numbers and grids to measure and reveal causal effects in early 19th century. Scientists of that era wanted to understand heredity and genetics but they did know know how these things worked .Then statisticians like karl  Pearson  and Francis Galton concluded that it was not possible to determine causality with scientific means alone. They believed that as you collect data  come to rely   on data as  a way to get closer to the truth and interpret it correctly then we can answer the question science pose( that has no bias) In scientific research questions cannot be answered with data solely because questions have context along either .Causal inference is very helpful in such research because  it is higher level of human thinking. Human are capable of three level of thinking and reasoning which are sometimes called " ladder of causation "
 First level sees and observe changes in pattern and draw conclusions on the base of associations so do animals and artificial intelligence. 

The second level is to recognize the factors behind it and then draw conclusions that can interfere the process of usual function .

Third at level is " Imagination "what places modern human better than cavemen and other animals. Thinking of future ,creating alternate such as a prosecutor can say during preceding in the court room that without firing without firing a gun that man wouldn't be  not killed .

Though author has  shown  another example for third level of human intelligence  (which he settled as ladder of causation ) but I will use words and a photo from his book only that how human imagination can help science to figure out more precise conclusions. 


Sorry for the blurred photo as power is gone and battery does not provide bright light. This is the simplest form of the diagram that author has used to measure the casualty. According to him if z is Alarm why is alarm and y is smoke then fire is third variable though irrelevant to alarm directly but confounder of the fire. 
To solve more complicated scientific matters it is necessary to causal inference lead the science discoveries and walk along otherwise it will be impossible to traditional statisticians to analize alone.

To process through these three levels writer has used three ladders and each ladder or level to analyze data is discussed with coherent previous analyzation which did not feel burden once i tried to keep in mind previous points writer has been mentioning throughout chapters , yes i repeated what i could not get though i can't claim i learned fully the point writer made here but as whole i think i could extract bit of it.
Due to shortage of time for posting i had to take help from online summery so i can put my words in short and accurate way  so i must not bore you with my lame vocabulary and longer sentences lol 

Thank you soo much for bearing with me kind friends! 
health peace and joy to all of you and to all you love!

Sciatica ,The Horrible Backache

 As flowers come with thrones literally though simbolically sometimes memories of Mery times include some soar touch either sometimes.

When left for Karachi I was fine I mean flu free, fever free and any kind of ache free as well. But after two days I suddenly got worse backache from the mid area between both shoulders and ending where actual back is. It started in the morning when I was carrying breakfast try for everyone. I felt suddenly piercing pain and destination few steps away seemed impossible to reach. I stood still. Took some deep breaths and told my Brin it's not a big deal so behave (I do it when needed and it works thankfully).

Could be my brain's positive response probably that I received a weak urge to rise next step though task still seemed so difficult to achieve. I did not want everyone to notice my issue so I tried to look normal and reached where I had to be seated. That was another problem because attempt to sit with such a shocking pain was going to reveal what I wanted to keep secret. So I joined their humorous talk by adding a sentence smilingly. Handed try to hubby meanwhile and then leant to sit on floor bed(son ordered rack for bed later).

Oh dear will never forget how I managed to hide my suffering from audience so they cannot realize my misery. Still they noticed from my efforts that something is wrong.

Hubby saw with curious eyes and eldest asked is there something wrong? I replied that my back is aching little bit for no reason. 

Hubby suggested if pain does not go in sometime take brufin  (tablet for body pain) .Eldest son advised that if pain stays longer go to the doctor . But i somehow forgot to take both advises in hustle and bustle of days of reunion. That was worst backache i had after almost 18 years .Yes first backache i got after the birth of my elder son .It made me cry and kept from doing anything physically for a two weeks almost . But when no medicine worked back then i followed my own intuition and started exercise showed in a morning show that was new beginning for my inner growth i must say because the feeling of fitness and confidence i got by exercise changed me as whole person. 

But hard part that then i was younger and doing such intense workout in this part of age (51) feels hard. So i searched on google by writing "whole body pain" after long struggle i read term Sciatica and when i read reasons that can cause it specially by pressing the central nerve i felt bit relevant .I checked a site where i read all about the Sciatica and followed the movements done in picture by a Chinese lady. Believe it or not after doing it for first time i felt so light and alive . 

Sadly i now found so many pictures and sites but could not locate the similar one with specific movements that i wanted to share here . But you know it's one click away if (God forbid) if anyone need it. 

Why i suspected about pressing central nerve ?

Well i am doing certain type of yoga movements since some years and i doubted if one of them might have pressed the central nerve . It is right or wrong but my pain was gone in two days completely by the grace of kind God who shows the way when one is determined in real means. I am glad that i could feel better without visiting doctor or taking medicine thankfully!   

Thank you sooo much for bearing with me sweet people! 

Was away from blogging for two days due to some reasons.Back now will be visiting you all asap !

Keep taking great care and having faith in divine force an ocean in which we all are floating ! hugs and blessings!

Sending Love And Healing To American Friends,, More Interesting Images From Zoo Trip

Hey lovely people, hope all is well at your corner. Though recent news about storm and extreme weather in America are heart breaking. This saddens my heart how bad weather conditions cause destruction to so many people and take innocent lives. My heart is with all who are suffering from difficulties because of the harsh weather. May everything be fix up for dear friends there and may life get back to normal soon amen! 

I am woman with weirdly sensitive heart and all my blogging friends are dear to me. When one or few of them goes absent my heart sink in worries like he or she my kin. Deep inside my heart I believe Noone is stranger but all belong to my Only Creator and therefore seem very close to my soul! I wish and pray that few of blogger friends who are probably too busy to blog are just fine and will return to this platform soon to reconnect with us. 
Our temperature is reaching to 2c at night and 13 to 17 at day so it is quite a cold for us. Though with warm clothing it is enjoyable when extreme summer are ahead. 
Sharing some happy moments we spent together as whole family in Bahria Town Karachi. 


        This is unbelievable how quickly joyous days pass. Sometimes it feels that only one thing is that actually holds the whole beauty and it is "wait" once the moment we wait arrive we get lost into it's whirlwind effect and when are e come dropped off to our reality it takes while to feel the present moment and then we realize that all magic was in the moments when we were "waiting"  for the actual day not even day itself. 

I remember when I first saw bird standing on one leg. I couldn't understand why I felt it was special. But later I made up a reason for that one leg stand and it was that may be bird has habit to contemplate a lot. But more later I realized that no intellectual, philosopher or scientist has been seen standing on one leg ever. Now I finally decided to ask Google about it. Sounds like fast progress 

                  Injustice was found In this cage actually. The bird wanted to enjoy his food but Mr Ostrich seemed to have hardly any manner or respect for the privacy of the bird. Each time when bird would try eat Ostrich would go closer and would rise his neck and try to eat from plate. Most interesting thing that held us there was aggressive and protesting behaviour of the bird. As humans we probably found it cute, interesting or amusing but as  Co creature I will not forget the courage of the bird who hardly let take any bite the mr big . This was inspiring somehow 

      It is beautiful when water mirror the sun. For a while feeling of having the sun so close comfort the heart. Tranquility and sooth unveil our thoughts and we try to find their reflection on the glittering surface 

                                                          May be they f the same way 

           


                            
                     Majestic creatures that make us fall in love with Nature once again 
 
 
My precious younger son has promised me that that he will try his best to eat healthy which means he will have to cook his food on weekends that will feed him for all or few weekdays at least. He has joined gym too. Let's see. May Lord keep him in his Grace 

                  
            On Sunday after video call he made his breakfast and shared image 


Thank you for bearing with me dear friends. See you soon!
Please take great care of yourself and keep faith in yourself and in divine creator!
