Things

The things that could have been. The things that will be. The things that were never meant to happen. The things that happen all the time. The things we don't understand. The things we don't want to understand. The things we wish we understood. The things that fall into place. The things that go haywire. The things we wish for. The things we actually get. The things that make up our days. The things we never wish to see again. The things we feel. The things we wish we could do less of. The things we revolve our lives around. The things we can't live without. The things we can't wait to get rid of. There are always things. Too many things and not enough people.

The kindness of strangers

It's funny how a small incident can make your whole day seem sunny and worthwhile. Finding 50 bucks in the pocket of your jeans, just enough sugar in the jar for your morning cuppa, sharing a laugh with a stranger at your favourite breakfast place. You know you'll never see him again. But for those few minutes, you are kindred spirits. For those few minutes you could be best friends, fellow conspirators, lovers sharing a secret. For those few minutes, you could be anyone in the world and he could be your Prince Charming. You may not give him a second look any other time, but for those few moments, it's just you and him. Against the world...

Silly love songs

Silly love songs... Silly silly love songs. Songs which we never admit listening to. Song which we usually don't pay any attention to because we think they don't need any attention... Those songs sometimes manage to put a smile on your face like nothing else can.
