Learn from basics

Many times, I realised that as we became more experienced in life and have deemed to see more in life, he tend to be more sophisticated about our needs and wants. Sometimes, we aim more, sometimes we want more, and sometimes, we felt that now is still not good enough. Things will always never be good, when we reached "there", we realised that "there" is still not better than now. We will still have our far share of complains and we will still have our fair share of problems. So, I learnt that, at least at this moment, we have to enjoy the journey to "there", and we have to do it in a meaningful, simple way. Being simple is important. To enjoy in a simple way, may be even better than having the luxuries of our material accomplishments. Therefore, having a piece of cake may be shi-a-wa-se (fortunate and satisfactory) and so is having a nice simple weekend. Back to basics is thus important, and many times, I forgot that basics can be just, if not more, satisfying and fortunate.

THis weekend, I have enjoyed it truly. It is simple, really simple. I share a nice cake with G-san from Awfully Chocolate, I read completed a good book, I watched a few tv programmes (nip/tuck, ally mcbeal, one pound of fukuin and lollipop), and I also enjoyed a bowl of big fried intestine porridge :) These are the simple things that can make us happy.

In life, we have endless pressures from work and others, but to know when to forget the problems for the time being and enjoy the present moments is just a simple thing we need to learn and appreciate :) We can have also have endless happiness too.
