Simple joy brings the biggest happiness. - My Memoir Monday.
I have said it earlier and will say it again, "life is often about finding happiness in the simple, small things rather than big achievements."
Hello, Silver Bloggers!
I hope you are doing well and agree with me on this. It's been not long since I found out about Memoir Monday and I wish I could find it earlier. But again, I'm new and fortunate that I found something that fits me. This is my second Monday.
Let's dig into the topic.
If you ask me, I can't name any single thing in my life that made me happy. I can talk about my family, children, good people around me, the everyday things, and my achievements but not any single thing. Is it possible to be happy with a few things? I guess not, we need everything. But with everything, I never mean the big goals and achievements of life. Yes, they are very important for life but the everyday small things are what make life more meaningful, happy, and fulfilled.
The Joy of my life
My morning tea.
I wake up very early in the morning before my kids are up. I love the peace and calm, planning for my day, and the mindful morning while sipping my morning tea. It gives me such pleasure and peace.
A sunny winter day
When I can see the sun in the morning during the winter, it makes me smile. I love the nice and warm, the gentle weather.
A cozy afternoon
I have to spend a good amount of time outside and interact with people as I work in a mall. So whenever I get a cozy, alone afternoon, I grab it; I love it.
The smell of new clothes and books
For my work purpose, I deal with items of clothing every day. I love the smell of new things; the clothes, the books, even the money!
Finding something after missing it
Suddenly, finding something like money in the old wallet, the sauce I was looking for, etc. makes me so happy.
The genuine connection
Not just conversation but some meaningful talk, the connection and laugh make me happy inside out.
The smell of the rain
I wait silently and patiently for the rain. The muddy, earthly smell of after the rain is my favorite.
Seeing the laugh of my kids
My house is full of giggles, laughter, and a bit of yelling too. But I love it.
Listening to the favorite song, on repeat
Call me crazy but I listen to my favorite songs on repeat. There are only a few, like, around 50, in my playlist, and I don't listen to anything but those!
Finishing the thing I was procrastinating
It gets me out of the guild and I love the feeling of fulfillment after doing a thing like coordinating the cupboard or the books of the selves.
Watching the cloud
I watch the cloud with my kids and find faces, animals, and whatnot. Very silly but I love this.
Thinking about the good time and smile
This is my favorite when something random/positive comes into my mind and I smile.
The list can go on and on and on!!
There are so many that I can talk about but let's not make this post any longer. I'm blessed that the list is long. I feel happy that I found joy in these small things. Life would be so boring if I couldn't, right?
I was not sure what I would write about, or how to compile them as there are many. But when I read the writing of ericvancewalton as he mentioned many things, I came to realize I could do the same. And it's better to do the same. As I have said earlier, there's no single thing that I can point out and say is the only pleasure of my life, but there are so many things.
Thanks for making a space where we can express ourselves better and make a journal of our emotions and feelings.
Your @peacefulsoul
