{February 16, 2009}   The Simple Pleasures of Life….

Its funny how easy it is to get  sucked into being materialistic in the world today, with the up-to-the-moment expensive toys , gizmos, collectibles screaming for our attention!! Have the “Best-things-in-life-are-free” days gone away?? So I decided to write down my list of the ‘simple pleasures’ of life to prove that the best things in life are indeed free…errr.. or atleast inexepensive :o )

The list randomly goes as-

  1. Sitting on the beach with my toes buried in the sand, watching the waves hit against the shore
  2. Lying on the soft green grass of a recently mowed lawn
  3. Gazing at the stars
  4. Catching the different patterns clouds tend to make in the sky
  5. Going for a long walk on a quiet street when everyone else is asleep
  6. Standing by the doorway on  a moving train, enjoying the wind caress your hair
  7. Having ‘chaat’ with your friends in those little stalls  by the beach side
  8. Talking the night away with your buddies leaning against parked cars in your neighborhood
  9. Swinging on the porch
  10. Having a ‘make over’ day with your girl friends
  11. Sleepovers!!! :o )
  12. Karaoke Nights
  13. Turning on your stereo real loud and dancing away
  14. Cooking with your friends
  15. Having a heart-to-heart conversation with a 4 year old
  16. Going biking with friends on a cool summers day
  17. An evening spent with close ones just traveling down memories lane
  18. Sleeping :o ) :o )
  19. Having ‘garma garam’ pakodas along with ‘cutting chai‘ (tea) on a rainy day
  20. Family get-togethers  on special occasions
  21. Bumping into a long lost friend out of the blue, and catching up on each others lives over a cup of coffee
