It is definitely true that life is what you make it. You have your ups and downs but through all of it , you want to enjoy it as much as you can. My goal is to have many more ups than downs. And in pursuing that goal, it is the little things that help me get there. Yes I know the parties, the nightlife, the festivals, the trips and anything of that nature are what everyone shoots for but for me there is more to it. Obviously, you can’t party, go out, socialize or travel all of the time. So there that has to be something that stimulates you and gives you moments of joy and happiness within the realm of your everyday life. And for me, it is the little things that do it for me. Mundane activities and casual moments that we take for granted are what make my life meaningful and joyful. Let’s delve into these things.

1. Listening to music. I really, really love music. When I am working, when I am driving, when I am working out and pretty much when I am doing anything, I listen to music. I listen to many different genres depending on my mood. Music always raises my spirits and puts me in a better mood.

2. Drinking coffee on the weekends in my house. A small but much needed thing. I drink coffee during the week but there is always work to worry about. My weekends are about relaxing and enjoying myself. Coffee relaxes me and it increases the value of my weekends. I get to sit back, savor and enjoy the moment. I look out the window of my 14th floor apartment and let my mind wander.
