A dear friend of mine wants me to come with a list similar to hers. I was initially horrified!!! This was something I never thought of and had never expected her / anyone else to ask me!! She persisted and I have to give in…..good friends have to yield to such pressures….
Yes, there are some things which result in a smile flitting across my face and what follows is a list of that. This is not exhaustive in any way, just a sample…
-
Getting up early in the morning and seeing darkness slowly giving way to light
-
Praying
-
Whenever I understand a new concept, whether or not related to my field of study
-
Being alone and sitting with eyes closed……love it if there is the pitter-patter of rain and any soft song of ARR in the background..
-
Watching and getting wet in the rain
-
Reading good stories / novels / non-fictions
-
Writing a good essay, with some effort put in, in collecting the data; the happiness multiplies if I post it on my blog
-
Whenever I’m praised for a good work done, by people whom I respect / hold dear to my heart
-
Long duration telephone calls / face-to-face real chat with people whom I consider special
-
Being near any water body – any pond, backwater, river, sea
-
Long distance traveling
-
Traveling along the Alappuzha-Changanassery road in late afternoons without rain
-
My M Com, B Com Final Year and 10th classes – even a mere mention of those well-spent years will do
-
Seeing a good song while casually surfing TV channels, only to know later that it’s by ARR. (This used to happen before I had access to the Net; not any longer, as I get to know of any releases of ARR or any news related to him much before others including mainstream media do, through ARR Fans Group)
-
Watching / reading anything related to ARR – interviews, concerts, award functions
-
Catching tunes of ARR being used in other TV programmes / films or songs copied / inspired from ARR’s
-
Flipping through the pages of my previous years’ diaries
-
Whenever yet another politician is caught red-handed in his / her act
Guess this is enough!!! Also got to add that included in the above are things which occur far and between…that’s gives them a special charm!!!
