SeptemboMo Day 1 in SeptemboMo

1. What are 10 things you appreciate about your life?

1. For having a life that’s not dependent on anyone. It took me well over a decade to reclaim my life from my own disasters, mistakes and bad decisions.

2. My PC. When corona hit and we all went home to work, gamers had the best time, I guess. My PC’s my companion, has been for so long.

3. Traveling. I should’ve done a lot more a lot sooner. Having breakfast on top of a hill while hot air balloons fill the sky in Turkey, the mesmerizing Siam Niramit theater in Thailand, the wonderfully placid life of Singapore. Everything’s gonna be different now.

4. Being curious. It has made me learn so many new things, discovered so many things that have had a lasting impact on my life. Also, made me friends in so many places.

5. Not being active on social media. I’ve seen what facebook/twitter/Instagram etc etc has done to people. The addiction, the never ending need to broadcast their life for a few likes, its an exhausting life to live.

6. Managing expectations. A hard learned lesson that changed the way I make decisions
now and how I manage expectations.

7. Falling in love with my best friend. It was well worth the effort, having to life with the “What If’s would’ve been hell. She turned out to be a complete sociopath, but that’s a story for a different time.

8. Switching to coffee from tea. I still love tea, but black coffee in the morning revs the engine up and wakes up everything inside. I love that feeling. Also, I’ve been trying coffees from all over the world. It’s such a delicious hobby to explore. Minus the coffee snobs, those are the worst.

9. Always having something to do. Taking time to cultivate multiple hobbies pays off.

10. Having the means to spoil myself if I ever want to. I have the money and resources to do things I want. And its taken me a long time to get here.
