Writer’s Workshop: My Xtra Special Moments of Joy
R and me
Spending time with the one I love brings me much joy. Last weekend I flew over to where R is working to spend some couple time with him. It was my special time together with him.
The last time we met up was in February when we had our Valentine’s Day couple getaway before returning back to Singapore together to celebrate Chinese New Year with the family.
Waiting for the sun to set on the boardwalk
Joy is ……….
being able to spend time with the one you love. Walking hand in hand basking in the setting sun. Admiring the view as you feel the sea breeze blowing against you.
The scenery from Ba Gua Hill
Joy is ……….
Soaking in the lights and panoramic view while having a romantic dinner at the top of a hill. Taking in the wonderful sight of hundreds of lights dotting landscape. Each of them representing a street light or a building in the valley below.
Our room at Yuma Hot Spring Motel
Joy is ……….
Having a peaceful night sleep without being disturbed by the kids. This is really something that I have been dreaming off and it was really a JOY to be able to experience it during this trip.
The indoor Jacuzzi at another motel which we stayed in.
Joy is ……….
Enjoying myself playing with bubbles and soaking in a tub while blowing bubbles like a little girl. Experiencing the fun that I used to have back then as a teenager.
The old street
Joy is ……….
Being a tourist and walking along streets reminiscing how it was back then in the 60s and 70s with shops that still were kept in its original condition selling olden day treats.
Our handmade rings
Joy is ……….
Celebrating your 14th Wedding anniversary 2 months in advance by making your own unique anniversary present at a jewelry making workshop. We made our own rings after selecting the pattern from the samples that we were given and did the engraving all by ourselves under the supervision of the teacher.
It was certainly a really unique experience and a priceless gift which would be treasured forever.
What is your Joy in the present moment?
