The good things in life...

I know I have been ranting a lot on this blog lately which has apparently scared most of my readers away (it was a single digit number anyway, and now it’s just SINGLE). So this weekend, amid all the cleaning, cooking and laundry (accidents can totally play havoc with your domestic situation), I also found time to be thankful for the GOOD things in life:

Thank you (‘you’ being some external force, which some people refer to as GOD) for all the basic stuff: two eyes/ears/kidneys/hands/legs, a functional brain and a normal body (these last two weeks I have realized what happens when even one of them gets crippled…

Thank you for a loving, healthy family, which despite our differences, still manage to stick together…

Thank you for the small but caring number of friends, and this one, I can’t value enough…

Thank you for a job which I like enough to report to work everyday, but not so much that it makes me complacent. It gives me a reason to strive for something different while helping me survive…

Thank you for the bi-annual sale. I may still be limping, but that didn’t stop me from picking up a pair of high-heeled blue sandals which I always wanted, at 50% discount…

Thank you for the Crossword right next to office, which allows me to sneak inside everyday when I can no longer stand the sight of equity research reports. I walk in everyday with no wallet (or else I would have been broke by now) a post-it pad and a pen, so that I can jot down the new titles and publishers, come back to office and place an order for the same on Flipkart…

And thank you for all things fattening (takeaway pizzas/chocolate ice-cream or just chocolate)…
