I was really pooped and frustrated from the day’s work and
going home was all I had in mind. I was about to reach the door when one of our
boss, Ms. Anna, gave me a Christmas present. It was a wish bracelet. But of
course I waited for me to get home before I opened it.
A gift is one of the last things in my mind that I’d be
receiving from the people in our office because usually it’s a bunch of papers
that has a lot of numbers on it, which I don’t intend to make sense of in any
kind of way, and an order to photocopy it. Hyep, all of those with a ribbon on
it. Hahaha. Joke. That is why it was a
bolt from the blue for me to receive such. Honestly, it kind of changed the
route where my day was heading. I suddenly had the urge to smile and savor the
genialness of life.

Funny how most people take these kinds of things for
granted. Drinking a cup of coffee while
reading a good book, receiving a smile from a stranger and you smiling back,
receiving or giving presents for no reason, curling up in bed with a warm fuzzy
blanket on a cold night, long talks with your best friends, exploring new
places, these things seem to be easily labeled as inconsequential. What they don’t
realize is that these things are like little rocks and if you put them
together, you’ll be able to build a wall strong enough to protect you from the
wrath that life throws at you.
