Exploring yahoo.com, I came across an article, “101 small pleasures you can enjoy every day”. Reading over the article, I thought it could help all of those that are anxiously studying to pass those dreaded midterms. The article is about the little things that we often over look but can make a drastic difference in our moods. I’ve been studying all these Romanticism theories and perspectives for my English class. Out of all the lectures I retained something meaningful for my life. We often worry about little things and transform them into these massive monsters. Which made me ask myself: In the great scheme of my life, how important are these midterms? You see, there’s so much more to live for than just passing a test. This doesn’t mean stop studying; go out in party. I’m just saying, it’s just a test. Pass or fail life goes on.
So take a break from all the books, & try relaxing with some of these everyday things/activities.
Here are five of the :
- coloring (yes, grown-ups can do it, too)
- crisp cotton sheets
- soft skin
- old family recipes
- the first daffodils of spring
