It’s easy to find sadness each day, but to find a moment of happiness is difficult. Last year, I couldn’t bring myself to finish the 100 Days of Happiness challenge. This year, I am more determined to finish it — Counting down to 2016 with Happiness!
The Happiness of Helping my Dad
100 Days of Happiness – Day 51
With a new phone, comes new features, and opportunity to explore them, and also get accustomed to the change, I think. I had got a new phone for my dad, and he likes it a lot. He’s wanted to type in Malayalam for a while now, seeing that my relatives, who are very active on WhatsApp, type in that language too. Today, I just checked the phone to see where the option was, and when I found it and showed him, he was quite happy to see that it was possible. He spent the rest of the evening trying the keyboard of course! Happiness is… seeing that happiness. Little things do matter!

Poetry & writing to me are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
That’s cool. Helping the older generation embrace the new technology is a different feeling. Hope your dad is now used to the Malayalam keyboard in his phone!
Yeah, Sreedeep. 😉 In fact, I think he’s too used to it. 😛
