Small Things Make Me Happy

I’m a kid at heart. That statement in itself sums up my character. I’ve been observing my temperament for a while now and attempting to make each moment of my life worth living (and reliving). What I’ve learnt from this is that it’s the small things in life that make me happy.

Here are the moments recently that have made me happy, and some of these may seem silly to you but that’s just how it is:

1.  I had a busy day at work as usual and since I’m working out of client-site these days, my drive home is no less than 1.25hours every day. It’s on my way back that I was driving the car at about 70km/hr on a road that I frequent. The music was playing but I have no memory of the song. Sun-down was a few minutes away and suddenly the street lights came on. It wasn’t dark and neither was it light; there weren’t many cars on the road and in the emptiness the street lights reflected lightly in the cloudy weather.  The scene reminded me of Harry Potter and how this scene would fall perfectly in a fantasy book. And this made me unimaginable happy! My heart seemed to jump with joy at this minor occurrence which seemed like my miracle of the day :)

2. Again, same old long drive to work. I was stuck in heavy traffic and as the road curved slanting downwards, a light green plant that I don’t know the name of swayed on my right side. It was a certain height above the car as I was on a bridge of sorts, and it’s gentle swaying in the breeze set the mood for my day :)

3. About 2-3 days ago, I was driving to this place for some personal work, and on the way this little girl of about 4, dressed in a dusty, faded purple dress was attempting to cross the street. I slowed down almost to a crawling speed – you could have walked faster than my car was going if you tried. The girl looked up. She had this animated look on her face – a look of pride at crossing the street alone, and also a look of caution. Her expression said it all, while she ran in short steps to the divider and looked back at me with pride in her eyes. I was reminded of the first time I ever crossed the street and realized that that feeling will never come back. Her look, her tiny steps and hops, and the pride and caution on her face float in front of my eyes even now, and I find myself smiling.

Top Tunes – Best Songs

Well, I haven’t yet mentioned toptunez anywhere besides my blog – no facebook or twitter. Nothing of the sort. I’m keeping it simple till it gains some regular viewers and the good news is that we are progressing at a decent pace – much better than expected, to say the least! Toptunez will continue to offer the best songs and the most awesome tunes to its viewers – some of these songs may not even be very well known, but they will definitely be a treat to your ears.

If you happen to run into this blogpost and have not yet checked toptunez.com’s top tunes offering, you should hurry up and check it out. Maybe even register as a member, if you’d like to!

 

If you have followed by ramblings in various online locations, you know that I was planning to set up a standalone music site. Well, the good news is that this website has been successfully set up and has ended up being a social network + a music site. It’s interesting so far as it has done well on day 1 of its life.

I urge you to go check it out, and even get registered if you’d like to do more than just read the blog. In fact, come up with some good posts and you can even be a contributor!

This great music website that I have toiled over is called: Toptunez.com

Yep. Check it out.
