The Bad & the Beautiful



The following are some of the wonderful, beautiful & surprising things to happen to a person, in no particular order (All experienced. Mostly! ).

1.     To wake up to the sound of the music in your dreams or even birds chirping!
2.     To witness a sunrise or sunset...its glorious I tell you...& the smell of mint leaves, turmeric, arriving rain, wet earth, flowers and petrol!
3.    To listen to beautiful musicYanni, Don MoenGod's way of showing us what Heaven will be like! ( Yeah, I'm in a bubble right now!)
4.     To find everything perfect in the bathroom when you go...lukewarm water, clean basin, new soap and things.
5.     To have a loved one hug you and tell you they love you.
6.     To get a surprise gift.
7.     To help someone in genuine need or make someone else happy
8.    To feel blessed and to realise how great God is...
9.    To fall in love, all the manifestations are included here & to love and be loved!
10. To finally get something you've been yearning for (A wish fulfilled or even finishing the last paper!)
11.  To laugh long and loud.
12.  To fell s**y and have people stare! Or even appreciate you.
13. To drink cold water when youre parched and to eat when youre hungry or even have anything specially yummy (Which could be anything at a specific moment) but specially chocolate and toast sandwiches.
P.S. Science Fact: You become happy because of the enzyme/chemical called dopamine.

Some irritating things:
14. To have chewed chewing gum stick to you (Yuck...you feel like strangling the person who left it there!).
15.  To be blocked or pushed away when youre bubbling with happiness and want to say something.
16.  To be shaken awake when youre in the middle of a beautiful dream or are really sleepy.
17. To Not get something you really really want.
18. To put poked, put down, insulted before people you know or want to know(like at a party and you end up seeing that college bully who made your life hell then, and now is going to ruin your chances of ever impressing the attractive girl or guy youve been wanting to go out with forever but were planning to ask today!).
19. To regret (Its bad, sometimes awful because you cant change anything).

I got this idea when I recollected having read about THIS website.
Created by Neil Pasricha, it features 1000 awesome things about life and two books followed the website.
The critics called the books "a collection of small joys", (which I think puts the book cleanly into a nutshell..I love(and envy) critics for being able to do that).
Awesome!

Yes, so thats for my Bad and Beautiful blog. Not very inspired writing but you need to be in the element to write these things with passion and fervour...so Ill try to edit this when Im in a blacker or more buoyant mood!
Until then...

Blog Question: Isn't love selfish too? At least from the human side, I mean. Were interested, i.e., love the other person only because he/she shows more interest in us than we take in ourselves...so isnt it a kind of reciprocation?
