Little Things

Back then, whenever I'm sad, I just randomly pick a book from the long, tall bookshelf in my favorite library downtown. I would travel in the other dimension through the fancy words, and if I am fortunate enough to have my sagacity with me, my mind would take me to the author's mind and from there, I would certainly realize things I haven't conceived yet.

Whenever I feel blue and I do not want to do anything, I just brew myself numbers of black coffee and excitedly pour it into my favorite cup. I lay in bed while listening to my playlist and keep myself busy in sniffing my scent on my favorite pillow 'til sunset. At night, I scribble words and spill some blank ink on white paper whenever I am bothered by things that keep on running in my head.

Back then, whenever I'm sad, I just keep myself busy doing things I am good at. I just write, I read, I paint, I drink coffee and I will feel alive, again. I dance along the cold breeze at night and I will feel at ease. I sing with chirping birds and noisy crickets and I will feel lighter. These things became my ritual and kind of meditation everytime I don't feel okay.

And these little things are the things I won't get tired of doing. Things that are keeping me alive every single day. Things that are keeping me in love with sun, moon, stars, and...

Life.
