Simple Little Things

They might be the most simple little things in life, but you never know, they're the ones that truly bring satisfaction the most!


Because yes, we all do have this normal, daily routine way of life. We know that, we live everyday. We work everyday, or we do the same usual series of things everyday, and all.... So therefore, why not we try to add something different, just a little bit in between then... :)

I think, everyone do have their own "little things" that they would love to have or to add into their daily lives. Those simple little things that you want to prioritize once in a while, entirely for yourself. And I think, there is nothing wrong if you want to do those little things of yours that you like or love to do, or fun to do, or enjoy to do.... And then, take them as your ultimate priority for yourself, apart from your everyday life. In other words, you have to be selfish for yourself 😂. Huh?.. Because sometimes, you're going to just really need of that, in between.., especially when dealing with life events or even stress!

I believe, everyone do have their own favourite little things in their lives. Thus, me too, do also have my own favourite simple little things 😅.... So, please don't laugh.. 😂.


The simple thing that I love the most during my free time is to just read a book. Some people say, we explore the world by reading books! And, of course, it depends on what type of story that a book could tell. I think, to read a book, there are times that it makes me feel to some sort of travel to different places at different times, just to feel that somewhat different tastes or vibes through a story to which a book could create. Because, we know books tend to have the possibility to empower our minds, due to the lots of knowledge or details, and the varieties of ideas or stories that they created. Hence, it's all about to have a little bit of changes, or unique kind of experiences from reading books.., because you know, working is boring 😆.., sometimes... :)


Walking in the park and eating ice cream is the best! It's something that I usually enjoy doing since childhood, and until today 😃. I remember when I was a kid, and whenever I was around in the park, and saw somebody selling ice creams, I would just rush towards that special person and bought his sweet, pretty little ice creams 😅. You know, when you were a kid, it felt like eating ice cream made you happy, and I'm really thankful for that person for selling his ice cream to me! 😊. Well now, the funny thing is, I'm still enjoy doing it and love to buy ice creams whenever I come to find the ice cream guy in the park!


It seems that I've been enjoying my laksa so much after coming back from work recently.., actually 😁. I don't know, it just happened that I really enjoy eating laksa after my night duty for the past two years. Maybe, I just say that, it's something like, you give a special treat to reward yourself with delicious laksa meal after long hours of hard work. Sometimes, I do feel funny because I've been eating laksa few times already and, until today I still appreciate it!.. Normally, I will surely go for laksa for my breakfast after my night duty at the Kopitiam (coffee shop) before going back home, and take shower, then go to bed!.. :)


When I was back in my hometown long time ago, I've encountered these two old stamp albums in my wardrobe closet at home. I was surprised, and suddenly I remembered that they were once used to be my hobby in collecting stamps when I was still in primary school. The funny thing now is, I still keeping them until today! And then again, they bring back all those old memories at school times.. :) I never thought that I'm such a vivid stamps collector back then. And, to have seen all those pretty little stamps have motivated me to start collecting stamps again, recently! 😬.


Now, there are times that I like to just go outside and watch the moon 😂. The nice part is, when it's simply a night time at its best, with the clear view of that big bright Mr. Moon up in the night sky is the best! It doesn't matter where I stand, as long as I can see the moon! And, I begin to staring at it... Then, I'll start my own stories... Huh! It's crazy, right?.. 😝. Actually, for this particular view (in the picture) above, it was my brother who have helped me took pictures of it. I remember, we were outside of a supermarket building when suddenly I saw the moon in the sky. It was so pretty!.. So, it's like, we took pictures, and then we had our night shopping at the same time! 😆.


I started to have some interests in these pretty little succulents and cactus. Actually, they used to be my sister's favourites, but then gradually, I begin to have been addicted to them too! 😅. I don't know but, it's maybe because they're pretty, simple, small, and cute! 😍.. And, it's pretty easy to taking care of them too, as my sister always said. You know, especially, when it starts to bloom and has flowers, it's the prettiest simple, lovely and cute little thing that ever happened!


Therefore, if you're really treasure that simple little things in between your busy, routine, boring daily life.., sometimes, these are the small things that can really bring colours, or joy, or fun in your daily life. Because yes, you deserve to make yourself a priority!.. Thus, take some time for yourself doing what you love or, do whatever makes you happy!

If you try to make or add some of that "little things" of yours, I believe it'll makes a huge different in your day-to-day life 😊. And also, as the mental health is connected to overall health, make sure to prioritize your own well-being. So, what do you do to make yourself a priority?
