The little things



The beautiful song that you listen to on repeat mode for a few days
The chaat you ate on a gloomy day
The hello you heard from a person who matters on a dull morning
The surprise gift one nice day
The habit you give up for someone you care
The wonderful meal you were pining to eat on traffic-ridden drive back…is now hot on your dining table
Mom’s call when you are down and low
The one last mint you find after a onion-filled Indian meal just before you enter the meeting
The long drive for a small cuppa
The surprise on meeting the bully of your class who is now a beautiful person
The wonderful tender coconut seller on a long hot stretch on a road trip
The sweet nothings from a friend
The sparrow you spot on a Sunday morning in Bangalore
The traffic-less streets on a Bundh day in Bangalore
The small eats you find at an eatery that you indulged in as a kid
The petrichor on summer day
The early morning lush green clear sight after a bout of heavy rain the previous night
The surprise of a beautiful pleasant early morning for the non morning person
The smell of coffee on a rainy day
The bottle of cola, at the perfect temperature, on a sunny, hot, sweaty day
The dusty jean you find after a decade and it still fits!
The beauty of plain ceiling on a lazy day with no disturbance but for the occasional noise on TV or the loo breaks
The crispy white shirt, neatly laundered, found at the end of the week when everything seems like it was just out of the cow’s mouth
The bubbling burst of  joy in your mind as you hear the stupidity from the person who is a show off and you hate
The flash of brilliance that makes you feel intelligent and want to go get it for the next 2 minutes
