A QUIET BEGINNING, A BETTER DAY.

Having a special time for God is about 45 minutes to an hour almost every day. It brings me renewal and hope, informs me, and guides me on everyday decisions. After l prepare breakfast as l watch a bit of the news. I shower, and l get dressed, go through my phone, and that takes time.

Household work, including cooking, washing clothes,shopping for groceries, and vegetables.

Watch serials or movies, read books,  write down stories on my blog, and do exercises every evening 😀

The above daily activities that I do give me any happiness🤔?

On serious thought, I realised that the first 2 activities I do because I have to do them.

I do to keep myself occupied, and my brain and mind engaged.

The last one gives me peace of mind.

But happiness? I pondered for long on what gave me happiness.

It’s not owning the latest gadgets or travel or talking to people.

The things that make me happy are:

Reading and writing on my blog.

Watching movies or listening to music while eating snacks.

Sleeping after having a meal

Later  in the evening,  l go to the gym for exercises to keep my body functioning and fit.

Watching the sunrise, sunset, sky, birds, trees, flowers, plants, and nature.

The last activity gives me the most happiness and brings calmness to my chaotic mind.

I think everyone needs to spend some time just sitting in the park or balcony/ terrace of their house. I’m just sitting still and watching how everything is so co ordinated in nature. Everything works in tandem.

The realization that you are not even a speck in this whole cosmos truly humbles you.

It’s a different sort of happiness being amidst nature. It calms your mind and gives you peace. It is only when your mind is at peace that you are truly happy.
