A simple life

Sometimes the simple things in life are the best things in life. The following is an example of simple moments in my life that have been entrenched in my memory:

1. Simple family dinners where all family members are present
2. Falling asleep as a baby in the arms of parents or grandparents
3. Reading a novel on a couch on a Saturday afternoon
4. Walking around the block early in the morning and breathing in the fresh morning air
5. Walking along the beach at sunset with my girlfriend
6. Listening to favourite songs in the car with my girlfriend
7. Telephone conversations with close friends from night until the break of dawn
8. Sitting around and gossiping with collegues after a firm function
9. Sitting around the piano or a guitar singing Christian songs
10. Playing out my emotions on the piano by myself
11. Buying Italian cold cuts from a local deli in Rome
12. Sitting in a mamak store in KL in the middle of the night talking to friends
13. Eating fresh crispy deep fried dough with congee on an early morning in Hong Kong
14. Walking along the streets of Paris looking at artists selling their work in street markets
15. Listening to a free jazz concert on a wharf as part of the Sydney Jazz Festival

Try to enjoy the simple things in life more!
