Imagine you woke up in the morning feeling fresh as the result of a good enough sleep. Or a bit dizzy, because you were awake until late finishing those exciting and engaging novel or TV series.
You checked on your phone, open your social media, laughed on some silly animal video, replying your friends comment of your previous IG/FB stories or feeds. Then, you drag yourself to bathroom, preparing yourself for works.
Imagine it’s the normal situation. Old one. When we all still went to office, meeting our colleagues in person. You arrived at your office, feeling regret for not having breakfast at home. But you had that colleague who’s always up to any quick breakfast suggestions. You had your breakfast together, gossiping about yesterday’s meeting and preparing your mood for a long day of working.
Then, it’s your usual weekdays office hour situation. Tensed meetings, yet still manage to joke around within (or got additional gossip materials ?). Lunch break with your colleagues (still talking about the gossip you got from the meeting). Or sometimes a nice quick reunions with your old colleagues or school friends over the lunch break. Your mood boosted up as there are so many funny things to laugh about, or burden to be shared. You’re ready for the next working hours.
You finished early that day. Try to race with the traffic hours as you had workout / gym class. Or another fun dinner with friends. Or those happy hour! Or maybe you just too tired and decided to call it a day. You went home, listening to your fav radio or fav soothing playlist. Or made a mental note what kind of dinner you’re gonna have at home (how about that burger joint from Bali that just recently open nearby? hmm…). You had your dinner while continuing that TV series. Probably had a nice conversation with your parents or room mates. You checked on your phones and found a new cafes/gallery/places in town that you haven’t visited. You put it on your weekend plan, telling yourself “this is a great place for a me-time!…..wait, I think the one of the boys/girls ever told me about this place. I’ll invite them as well”. You slept early that day, feeling tired yet exciting for the next weekend that you’re gonna spend with best friends or for a me-time.
Sounds fun right? Did you miss anything?
You woke up checking on social media on your phone, not for waking someone up. You had your lunch/dinner without checking on someone “Have you eaten?”. You were so focus with your work without thinking you need to pick up someone after office. You were so free that you could have dinner with friends, workouts or any after office activities. Or free trying out some new activities on the weekends. You slept anytime you want without have to inform someone. You felt more connected with your family and close friends. You somehow felt content and full. You’re happy and grateful.
