The verdict is out ---there are happy people in Singapore! Their common denominator? They are all comfortable about themselves. How true this is! Of course money matters. Health is important too. Beyond these, we actually hold the steering wheels and control the pedals in our passage through life. Be it riding in Lamborghinis, Mercedes, Toyotas, Kias, Protons, Cherys, motorbikes, bicycles or trishaws, we all want to reach our destinations and most will eventually do so. But how many of us will actually take notice of the sights along the way, the fresh air, the sounds and the passengers who are riding with us? Do we sometimes smile and wave on a pedestrian at a walk crossing or flash our middle fingers readily when others cut into our lanes? How do we really feel under our skin each day as we go about our lives? Do we choose to see the sunshine or that faraway dark cloud? What is your happiness quotient?
Last night, the happiness quotient at our home was high. The 3 boys had royal treatments from the Significant Other ---- full body massages , all 10 minutes each! The girls had a brief respite from their academic tests, so they caught up with their YouTube soap operas and MSN-ings. Me? . . . I was contented . It was enough.
