Disappointment? Not so....

Went for my yoga class last friday and all ready to start my class only to have found out that I didn't bring my yoga pants!! I tried so hard to think if I have shorts or any extra pants in my car but NO NO....i was really disappointed. Waking up 2 hrs then I usually would just to go for my yoga classes is a joy and to my carelessness last week, I forgot to pack my pants. Well, I thought to myself, maybe the staff there have got pants for people like me!! Maybe i could get a new pair of pants there....well, to my utter dismay, nothing for me! The shop is closed, it's too early, it's 7am, nobody opens up their shops at 7am.....

Afterwhich, I reluctantly took my shower and get ready for work.....I thought to myself, what good can this come out to. I refuse to get negativity in my way, I thought long and hard to think about what I can do with the spare hr that I have in my hand that morning....well, I was delighted when I thought of what I can do!!

Well, went to have my favourite katong laksa at Holland village. Had my morning cuppa tea and a nice cool quiet morning all by myself just enjoying the morning birds chirpping and seeing people go along in the morning. I noticed that people who wake up in the morning, that early, are hardly in a rush. Unlike the peak hrs period that we are used to. I guess they took the opportunity to be early to hit the road and not get trapped by traffic (human or cars).... very clever indeed. Try it one day, it's tough to be up earlier but you'd feel the big difference on your way to work or anywhere...it's slow, easy, no rush......

I was totally satisfied with my breakfast and was at work really early that day even with my slow morning breakfast with my favourite food.....

I learnt couple of lessons that day.
1) Always have SPARE YOGA CLOTHES in my bag AT ALL TIME
2) In all "bad" situations, think of this "What good can this do to me?", it will force us to think and be creative and turn lousy situations around in spilt second!!

It's really precious life lessons I have learnt today and I will remember to ask myself this question when "bad" things befall unexpectatly....

Do likewise, it's fun and it's all a matter of perspective and how we create our lives to me.....we are only as happy as we can make ourselves to me....

Cheers!! Happy Shopping for Christmas!
