What is the first thought that
comes to your mind as soon as you open your eyes in the morning? Do you think
of the things that you will do to make you happy? Well, I don’t! Mornings are
the worst part of my day. First thing, I struggle to get out of the cozy bed. Since
winter is approaching, it will become even more terrible for me to start my day :(. Then comes the part of scurrying
to office with meetings to attend, minutes to be followed up and deadlines to be
met. So where is the time to think about things that will make me happy? Grrr...
Today's post by Cheeky Pink Tulip here had me rather thinking and instead of
leaving a comment I decided to create a list of things that will make me happy
seriously. :). This way I
can think and write on stuffs that will make me happy. Since it’s a Sunday post,
I shall focus on things that will make me happy on a SUNDAY.
Going to
the church: A Sunday spent without going to the church means a Sunday
wasted for me. Throughout the week, God’s grace and mercy keeps us protected in
good health. So I believe in thanking Him for His grace and mercy by offering
him prayers of gratitude worshiping Him.
Writing: Nothing is
much more important than writing when the inspiration strike. As soon as I read
this post on her blog the sudden inspiration to write hit me and therefore this
post. So this post is ‘spur of the moment’ post. A deep sense of satisfaction
overwhelms me after doing a blog post. I am sure all you bloggers also feel the
same. Those of you who constantly update their blog must be achieving
satisfaction now and then which I am so envious of lol. I hardly update this space :(. I have promised myself that I will
at least write once a month, and if you notice there is at least 1 post
every month hehe.
Reading: I am one
hell of a lazy bone. I can’t sit straight while reading a book. So I lie down
most of the time. That way I go to bed with a book and sleep with the book as
well. My idea of reading a book is to be inside warm covers in the bed with a
good cup of hot coffee. This way nothing can take away my pleasure of reading.
Exercising: Yes, exercising makes me immensely happy. I have been a huge fan of Pop Pilates of Cassey Ho, know her more here. I have downloaded almost all her vids yet the lazy spirit inside me overtakes it. I bought a new yoga mat also for inspiration yet I have been too darn lazy. But I make a point to do exercise on weekends and I seriously need to do more of it.

Taking a
walk: Booming construction in Thimphu especially around the place
where I live has made it inconvenient to talk a walk around. While in college
we used to take long walks almost every day back then. There was one particular
lecturer, an Indian guy who used to take brisk morning walks every morning. Rain
or shine, he would be up for walk with ear piece of his iPod plugged in his ears.
I wish I could remain dedicated like him for more happiness :P.
A clean
room: I have this obsession for things to remain in its place in
order. So my weekend is basically spent on cleaning and
arranging my closets and drawers. That’s why I hardly have time to hang out
with friends and family. But an
orderly room gives me so much joy.
Tit-a-bit example lol |
Tit-a-bit: I could not think of any other title for this
description so the name tit-a-bit. From manicure to waxing my feet and using
face mask or peel off, all these things I love to do on a Sunday like today.
So these are
the pills to my happiness. If I could do all these in a day, what more can I ever
ask for? Happiness is subjective. It varies from individual to individual. Since
great things come in small packages, my ultimatum to happiness would mean doing
these small things.
What is
your pill to happiness? Did you ever ask yourself? If not, please do it
immediately.
All good
things come to an end, thus this Sunday. It has come to an end. I had a
blissful Sunday, hope you had the same. So a happy week to all lovely readers!
