Simple Pleasures of Life - 7

Getting up before the alarm and realising that you still have one more hour to sleep

Alarms are dreaded instruments, especially on weekday mornings. You feel like you have just hit the sack when you are suddenly woken up by a sreeching sound. You try to snooze, demand and finally beg for some more sleep. But eventually you have to get up and start with the daily routine. Then what happens when you get up well before the alarm rings and realise that you can sleep for one more hour? You thank your stars and go back to sleep with a smile on your face, snuggling happily to your blanket. Ah, simple pleasures of life.

P.S. I am travelling for the next one week and will be moderating the comments till the time I am back. I will be replying to the comments and reading your blogs as soon as I am back.

Watching a movie trailer and guessing the entire story of the movie

Oh yeah ! You are at your home watching the previews of upcoming movies and you and your sister/friend/husband make up the entire story of the movie by just watching the trailer. It is quite a fun thing to do. Especially when you watch the entire movie once it hits the theatre and realise that the actual story of the movie is quite different from what you had envisioned ! You look back and laugh at your creativity. At times, you wish the actual story of movie was indeed what you made up, it was more fun that way :)

Browsing through old family albums

You may be sporting a different hair or your fashion sensibilities may have taken a 180 degree turn. You no longer have those crooked teeth, neither are you that cute chubby child who always sat down while the picture was being clicked. One thing is for sure, for better or worse, you look a lot different now. Browsing through old family albums is a nice way of reminiscing those good old days. A trip down the memory lane is always bound to bring a smile on your face.

Dance as if no one is watching, Dance to your heart's content and soul's desire. Don't let anyone deter you and tell you that you are bad dancer. Dance is a form of expression, enjoy it to the fullest. Dance as if no one if watching.

Elaine (of Seinfeld fame), you go girl. Let everyone make fun of you, but I find your dance quite interesting :)

Watching rain

Watching rain through the window as it plays its owns ballet on the ground. A book and a coffee adds charm to the experience !

Smell of books

How many times have your opened a new book and tried to smell its pages? Never ?!?! Then you should do it very soon. You can try it with an old book too. What you sense will be a rustic smell, sharp enough to tinkle many of the old memories. I wish I could put a name on that smell. Alas, somethings in life are meant to be felt and not explained in as many words. That's why it is called a simple pleasure of life. Doesn't all the booklovers out there will agree with me?

P.S: Starting today, Simple Pleasures of Life will be a weekly feature in dewdrops, in which we will discuss a simple pleasure of life every Wednesday. The criteria for an experience to satisfy as a simple pleasure of life - it should be rather inexpensive, simple to understand and heartfelt. Isn't that simple?
