the simple pleasures in life.

was a nice journey home today from zouk (yes my maiden trip there was to run with a whole bunch of pri school kids in the DAYTIME) and i thought about all the nice, though seemingly insignificant, things that happened to me this weekend, and decided to jot them down :) despite a fairly crappy week, i guess there are many simple pleasures and blessings in life that we ought to be thankful for. these are the little things that happen that we oft overlook or take for granted.

the simple pleasures:
1) the feeling after a run (despite the temptations to curse and swear while running)
2) discovering a new bus route that halves your travelling time
3) the traffic light turning green as you reach the junction, the train arriving the moment you step on the platform, the bus arriving as you approach the bus stop, etc
4) yummy peanut waffles fresh from the um, machine.
5) yummy peanut waffles that still cost $1 despite the gst hike (i had to pay 5c more for my loaf of wholemeal bread)
6) getting random hugs/pokes/high fives on facebook
7) talking and laughing with a whole bunch of people that you've never met and you still dont know their names now
8) having someone always look out for you and wait for you even tho you're slowing her down, thanks :)
9) having someone notice that you had a bad week and express concern, thanks :)
10) receiving positive affirmation when you are feeling the most insecure, thanks :)

lastly, knowing that there is always someone up there in control :D
