List 10 things that make you really happy.

So here we go with my list of 10 things that make me really happy. I’m not sure if I have 10 things already lined up in my head but yeah let’s start with this:

1. Writing

The thing I want to be associated with in life. I somehow found this affinity towards stories and writing when I got into undergrad and since then I never wanted to stop even though I write quite leisurely and very occasionally, I never feel like I’m out of it or never learning it.

2. Family & Friends

People in my life have always been a great help to me, be it either as a great support system, someone to look up to, someone to learn, someone to talk to, someone to spend time and enjoy it. My family and my set of friends that really knew and understood me have always been the people that I am most grateful to in life.

3. Cricket

My childhood passion and obviously it still holds a great place in my heart. I still want to be a cricketer and try to be a better player than what I was before. I want to make a name for myself as a notable cricketer if I can get a chance. I think I have a decent chance here in Rome, playing for my club I think I can take a few strides and get better and try out different options with my cricket.

4. Movies/TV shows

Anything with stories will always have my attention. I love to read, consume, watch and hear stories of all kinds from all kinds of people. The visual medium of story-telling captures my heart and the nuances that can be brought into a story through camera angles, editing, writing and visual metaphors is definitely one to fall for and I will keep writing so well that someday my works could get translated on to a visual story.

5. Music

My companion at all times. Be it English, Hindi, Malayalam, Telugu or Tamil and sometimes Kannada, Bengali and Punjabi. Music has always been a great mood influencer and my newfound love for classical instrumental music and nature sounds has only enhanced my love for music even the more. Thanks to Spotify, my mind is in a better place than before.

6. Travelling

One thing that I would love to do at all times, provided if I have a few extra bucks in the pocket is Travelling. It can be soothing, experimental, peaceful and an escape from the sad reality that my life is. But there is always so much to learn in life and I think travelling has the power to teach innumerable things to a person and the whole experience of documenting is a great gift.

7. Cooking

One of my underrated traits and something that I wish that I had given more importance or more efforts but unfortunately my sheer liking to laziness in my life has gone far beyond my love for cooking and making efforts to do things. But still, someday cooking will be a more frequent and a happy activity for me.

8. Conversations

My day-to-day life nowadays is filled with conversations be it with people I know or the people I started getting to know or the people I want to know. Even though the number of conversations that I have nowadays is a lot less than what it used to be, I still value my little times with people very much and try to make it engaging and helping the both or the whole group. I will never be bored with conversations and some of the times I get high even when I don’t drink.

9. Cuddling

The only thing that I don’t get to do as often as I would love myself to do and there is nothing I can complain about here. My relations with people nowadays haven’t been good and I don’t engage with new people as much as I want myself to, but that doesn’t work as well. So, cuddling is out of the question at least for another few months or so.

10. Doing nothing

My life right now is this. I’m enjoying my life doing nothing about everything that’s important in life. I’m not worried about my studies, my future, my family, my love life, my travelling, my writing, my cooking and my cricket. After discovering that doing nothing is actually helping my mental peace, I’ve resorted to it more often than not coz I don’t really know what else to do, when to do and how to get about things in life when it gets this tough in life.

I think I’ve made a great attempt for the first day and I don’t want to be this long or maybe I will exceed this length of a post but I hope to continue this game for the next 30 days. 

Until tomorrow, Arrivederci!
