Enjoying Life on Common Things

Thank you for the warm welcome Marguicha! Yes, the sound of the ocean and the sight of the beautiful rising and setting sun is something I look forward to a lot. Experiencing really calms my soul.

Where are you from? What ocean is the one nearest your home? I have the Pacific Ocean 2 hours awayy frm where I live and can see the Andes mountains from my doorstep.

I am from the Philippines. I am minutes away from the South China Sea. Your location must be lovely! You said you see the Andes mountains on your doorstep, wow, I can only imagine!

Aptly said! It's really very simple. We just have to look around and well find that there's a lot to enjoy in life. It doesn't have to be huge or grand. As I've said, you'll never know what joy little things around us can provide our soul.

Thanks for the welcome mysdianait! I was trying to imagine what you were saying and yes, how tranquil that is! Listening to their harmonious chirps and orchestrated singing, they are a beautiful sound indeed. How nice that your home overlooks a park. I hope you'll find time everyday to feel good about whatever is around you.

Thank you Magicchou! Indeed, there's a lot to treasure in life. Even the simple, common things have the right to be cherished. In fact, sometimes they are the ones that gives us constant access to feeling good and being happy. It's a matter of trying to open our eyes and learning to appreciate what are around us. When able to do that, you allow yourself to be happy, and let your soul feel at peace.

Thanks jricky. I believe we do live both on a bustling, noisy city. Maybe the only difference is that, I could easily go to a place not too far away that could give me the privilege of silence and give me the chance to just ease my mind and enjoy it. If you can't let yourself to do that stuff you're telling me that you want to do yet. then find a place where you can enjoy the silence and just be at peace with yourself, away from the noise of the busy city. That's the point of finding joy on common things, just looking around you and seeing that there are a lot of things to feel good about.

We really should Myjoon! There's a lot around us to feel good about, right?

That is true. There's a lot of beautiful, simple yet amazing things around us that needs to be seen which we actually don't notice most of the time. I guess we just need to open our eyes and learn to appreciate them.
