...and these are a few of my favorite things!

SO, what are a few things that one can be happy about?

Over the past thousands of days of your existence, you must have lived through millions of things that came into and left your way. Some things just leave with no signs of repetitions, but many others keep coming back into our lives in several variant forms.

"...And these are a few of my favorite things" will be a continuous blog entry to note, cherish and re-live all these things that happiness is ultimately made of. I will be keeping a tab of these things in my head each day and will try to enter these regularly in this space..

And though I keep saying "a few things", please do remember that the count of these "happy" things can very well be infinite and it certainly isnt directly proportional to the count of the days in your life =)
