The moment we come up with the word summer we Indians relate to a hot, humid and unbearable heat during the months of June, July and August. I mean my definition of summer was this till now.
Summer in Canada an incredible experience.Ever since my arrival(March 2010) here I wake up every morning to see a change in color. Summer is the time of splendid sights, sounds and smells all around. Beauty of nature at its best. A walk around the street and I see beautiful flowers and gardens . Even the busy market places also have their own charm. Eating out has never been so lovely. There is nothing like having your favorite food or coffee while sitting in a patio surrounded by flowers of different colors.
Each day a walk through all this reminds me to make most of it. As it is short lived and very soon long harsh winter will be on its way. I believe mere memory of these bright long days will sustain me for a long period of time.
Few days ago I read on my fortune cookie , "those who endure the most are rewarded the most". I know that winter is going to be tough time for me because I am more used to summers. Honestly, if there is a reward in form of the summer after the winter endurance, I would gladly accept it.
If someone is making a bucket list then do add on the experience of Canadian summer. It is worth it.
