The smaller things in life..

Don't we all sometimes wish we lead the high life? Live in big houses, drive nice cars, wear branded, have maids and butlers, dine out at fancy restaurants, hang out with the rich and famous? I often dream of a life like that. To live luxuriously. Why do we yearn for material things like such? Do they really make one happy? Does it make you happy when you have all the above but no family nor friends? Sometimes, in life, it is the little little things that make one happy. Sometimes, it is the smaller and insignificant things that make me happy. For example:

1. The smell of freshly brewed coffee and the ‘ting’ that goes off of the toaster in the mornings
2. When it’s raining outside and I’m sleeping in
3. When someone greets me ‘good morning’ with a wide smile
4. When the hairdresser compliments me after a hair-do
5. A text from my girlfriends telling me they miss me
6. When mom cooks my favorite dish without having me to ask her
7. When someone holds the door or lift
8. A walk on the beach, with the breeze in my face and the sound of waves crashing shore
9. A sleep over at friends’ doing nothing but talking and laughing
10. Spending endless time with people I love
11. A call from a long lost friend
12. A birthday card from a friend you least expect
13. When a little kid smiles at me when I smile at them
14. When a random guy asks me for my phone number or if I have an fb account
15. When I have a sisters’ day out
16. When my nieces and nephews want me
17. When I’m eating cookies and cream ice cream :D
18. Surprises
19. When I’m out shopping!!
20. CHANEL CLASSIC FLAP lamb skin IN JUMBO!!!

I count my blessings everyday. I think everyone should. :)
