Happy Meter

There are some days when you'd stress yourself out until panic gets before you. And then there are days when you just leave all the things you need to do and say "I don't care". Today's the latter.

I don't know if it's the vibe that candycanes bring, or if it is the looming short vacation, all I know is just that today's one of those better days. 

Today, I found it meaningful observing shoppers' behaviors in the mall. They give so much insight. When people rush during December, you know it's out of the intention of getting the best gifts for friends and family, and not the rush to accomplish some workload. I was shopping for some gift wrappers awhile ago when there were also hundreds who were (yes, it may be an exaggeration). Who cares about gift wrappers in the busy hustling world today? The fact that we still do means so much, that the spirit of Christmas giving equates to never settling for mediocre gifts. It gives me a happy heart, knowing how we are not mere robots under the control of busyness. We are striving to be human. Christmas is the season to fill our tummies with yummy good food, but it's also the time to fill our hearts with the cheer missing during ordinary days.

Life is good, yes? :)
