Walking on the bright side of life

The simple joys February 23, 2011

Lately, I developed a new lunchtime routine. After my meal, i’d walk to a nearby cafe. Sitting outdoors, I’d have either some fruit or yoghurt as I people-watch. It’s a relatively quiet corner, you see a couple of flashy cars drive by the roads, some moms grocery shopping with their cute lil’ babies, office workers coming out for a quick bite…

Today, as I licked my yoghurt off my spoon, i thought about how much fun it is to be able to share a dessert with your loved ones. To fight for the last bite of cake, or last sip of drink… That’s a sweet memory that made me smile.

Life’s simple moments can bring so much joy, if you let it. And yes, that’s something Sherman and I always do when we eat. But he’s sweet enough to let me win. All the time. 😉
