Happy (new year)
A year ago I predicted that 2007 would be better than 2006, and indeed – it was.
And I have plenty of reasons to believe that 2008 is gonna be even better. :-)
Today I went skiing, and it was grrreat. The slope was not steep at all, but carving skiing makes it plenty of fun even without steep slope. And without poles (pun fully intended :P) it’s even better.
Also, I think I’ve become happy. At least during the past few months I’ve been feeling happier than ever (it’s not as intense as sometimes, but instead it’s a very, very persistent happiness). And I don’t think it happened by chance. I concentrate on my happiness a lot. For example, I eat about 1/3 of an extremely dark chocolate (“Wawel” chocolate, 90% cocoa, made by Poles (see, Poles can be useful, after all ;-))) during each workday. Also, I’m going to take a really hot shower right now, and then I’m gonna get close to 8 hours of sleep (gosh, I’m almost envious… ^^).
Happy new year!

Uhh, that’s a very practical, even physical, approach to happiness… Chocolate…

Well, these were just examples, I am also trying to do things that fulfill me (such as playing go (also, I’m going to meet Takemiya-sensei (and rainy-chan) this weekend, yay!)).
And I think the important thing is to base your happiness on stuff that can’t be taken away from you (yes, maybe in the future there will be no more chocolate and hot water won’t be available, or whatever, but I think in that case I’ll be way too busy trying to survive to care about those things, anyway).
As for the dark chocolate inducing happiness, I think it works… and it’s also healthy for one’s heart and reduces blood pressure :)

To je zvláštní, že se nám to stalo víceméně zaráz. Anebo ses nechal inspirovat zápisem z mého blogu (i když to byla jen špička mého ledovce štěstí ;-)
