The Happiest People In The World
Sunday, January 20th, 2008Every morning on my way to work, I see the happiest people in the world. Who are they? They are people who sit and have a cup of coffee in The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. They seem very blissful as they enjoy every sip of their coffee, sometimes with freshly baked muffins. At least that is what I see when I half-walk-half-run to work, hoping that my boss comes later than I
The world offers the slightest sense of justice! How come these happy people have free time to enjoy their morning? How come they don’t drag their asses to work? Don’t they have work to do, money to earn, family to feed, bills to pay? Answers to my questions are getting clearer as I observe them closely day by day. They enjoy their morning because they enjoy their life. They don’t work, money comes easily for them. After a couple of hours having breakfast at Coffee Bean, they go shopping (Okay, I made this one up…)
But seriously, what kind of people who have breakfast at a café, 9 in the morning wearing casual clothes? Maybe some of them own some outlets in the mall. I don’t know how they make their money, what I know is they are damn rich!!!
I define my happiness differently, thanks to them. If one morning on a weekday I sit and order Macchiato at a comfy café, not worrying about my job, that is heaven. Simple eh? J
For now I have to endure having Cappucino from my office’s vending machine. Thank God.
