The Little Joys of my Life

There are so many things in and around me that make me smile. But seldom do i really appreciate their value in my life.
These little precious moments may sound silly to many and at times they sounded the same to me also till i really understood the joy within me.
Watching the sunrise and sunset always make me smile . I never knew why and i am stil trying to find the philosophy over it. Nowadays i move out of my house so early that i am fortunate enough to catch a glance of the sunrise and i leave my office by sunset so i am more than fortunate to catch a glimpse of both sunrise and sunset. It just lasts for a moment but i cherish the smile . It simply sets my mood for the day.

The other thing is the romantic Mr. Moon. I just dont know what is the charisma of this object. But i can just gaze at it for hours. The calmness and coolness of the moon just makes me wish of having some loved one around to enjoy it together. But nevertheless i enjoy it hoping someone else is also gazing at it with as much curiousity as i am.

Hav you ever missed a train by a sec. Then i guess u wud also enjoy the joy of being able to catch a train on time. Oh there hav been so many instances when i hav caught the running train. Blame it on being part of the great Mumbai railways all my life.
The other thing i enjoy in trains is simply standing near the door (offcourse when its not crowded). The awesome feeling of having the air pass thru your face is just undescribable...
I love it :D

Most of us love rains and if u dont then u better start enjoying it. Oh there may be more than 100 excuses i wud hav made inorder to just step out when its raining. My Mom simply refuses to let me get wet and i find all the possible items to go out for shopping . It may be as simple as a soap to as complicated as a medicine we never use.. But i just need to step out. When the rain drops just fall on ur face, nothing is more fresh than this .....

Though i never really get that much time to be around a beach, but whenever i am around i enjoy watching the waves. Even as a child more than playing in the waters i hav always loved watching the horizon, the waves. My mom once t0ld me that there are two types of waves. A smaller one and a bigger one. The bigger wave tries to chase the smaller ones . I am not sure how much of this is true and scientific. I enjoy the calmness, the serenity around a beach.
Best is to alone and admire its beauty. I bet you would also smile.

I can go on and on and i am still discovering more and more such moments every day.
It is these special moments that make my life memorable to me.

A sentence changed a person's life . I hav witnessed it myself. The powerful sentence was :
"I wish to enjoy the happiness in small things". Thats exactly what i am trying to do now.

Enjoy every moment. You may never know when u missed a gem when u were busy hunting for the stones :)
