The list of small things in life that bring me happiness
the happiness I can obviously felt from my parents and my grandparents at the other end of the telephone line when I called them now and then
every single second I talk to Achim, my very cute love
the surprise mooncake from my teammates who are from Denmark, Australia and Argentina!!
the second when I looked up the sky and found the bright moon and sparkling stars
the most innocent smile from a baby on a night bus
the “bye” from a complete stranger on the s-tog train
the beautiful mix of white roses and purple tulips next to my laptop on the old but nice white working table from my flatmate
the feeling of somehow home when I got back to my room and threw down the heavy backpack
the simple “thank you” from an AIESECer and was proud of myself that I did make a difference to individual
the mid-night out-of-control candy fever – oh my god!
a good book to read, inspiring and with easy also wise language
understand/guess-right some basic German from friends on MSN
the cool breeze during coffee-break after 3 hours sticking in the half-basement office
nice music from random corners everywhere
afternoon sunshine in a/many chilly day(s) of Copenhagen
watered my 2 pots of plants and 2 vases of flowers… in my colourful room
emails from old friends, from AIESEC China, though we’r now scattered around in Europe and China
a lazy Sat morning slept until I didn’t want any more
a movie that moved me to tear, just to name a few: English patient, Leon: the professional, Frida, Love Actually, The Postman etc etc…
missing my honey and feeling the love between 2 different individuals… not easy but truly beautiful!
It’s every single unique human being, or even a piece of music, a chapter of book, a small flower… all in all, they light up my life with surprise and happiness, sometimes even happy tear… it is my attitude which matters, I guess. Yes, when people ask isn’t that difficult to be apart from someone you love, like my mom and my boyfriend, YES, it’s definitely too HARD. However, something fundamental you can’t change at the moment, but luckily all those small things still come up to my life now and then and presenting the world in a beautiful way.
I’m lonely but I’m not sad.
And I’m not alone.
Love from Wing in the mid-autumn Copenhagen…
