When I said that there is a good in every day, I didn't realize that I will be tested so quick on that. How am I supposed to find a good in a day when I just got to know that Kutu passed away. Dear, sweet, soft spoken Kutu.
It is very hard to think of any good on a day like this. But to be fair, I was happy to spend a lovely evening/day with Dada and his family. They are leaving tomorrow so I am happy that we hosted them well on their stay at Seattle.

The same activity which gives happiness one day doesn't bring any joy if taken too far. So when I gossiped with Bhaswati again today, I crossed the line. No joy in it and repentance sets in. The good of today is the lunch at Kanishka with everyone.

Thanksgiving day: so much to be thankful for. Today me and my mind spent very happy alone time while Sandip took Dada, his family and Rishi to Leavenworth. So happy to have a quite lunch at MacD. Really enjoying the book 'A good Indian wife'. Later in the evening was happy gossiping with Bhaswati.

A lot of happiness spread across the day today. Kept my patience with everyone. Most of all felt really good to have heart to heart conversations with Bhaswati and somehow felt nice to know that we have very similar experiences. Awesome dinner at Skycity restaurant in the Space Needle.

A day filled with busy anxiousness as Dada and family are coming over for a visit. But fresh linens in the bed always makes me happy.

Happniess Each Day

Someone had said "Everyday might not be a good day but there is something good in every day". That some one (other than me ;) ) must have been great cause its so true. I am yet to come across a day which didn't have an element of goodness in it. I am setting out on an experiment to see if this is a fact or if there might be a day with nothing good about it. Now 'goodness' is definitely a matter of perspective. For me, a long afternoon nap makes for an excellence that not everyone - including my son Rishi who would rather play XBOX all afternoon, will agree. So this journey will document 'my goodness'. Leave a comment if my good is your good or not and share your 'goodness' to spread the 'good' around. A 'good' time to start the process now :-)

Today (11/25/2013) - loved the fact that the traffic was light and I didn't have to struggle to reach work and get back home. I felt happy that I could get the data from COSMOS grouped and organized just as I wanted it. Forced myself to listen to Rishi about the Rubik cube game he was playing with, even when I was tired after I got back late from work. Proud of myself for being able to do that.
