Happiness

[katriona_s]

On my trip to Ishigaki island I have stayed in a small, reasonable hotel. It's convenient and comfortable enough but the bathtub in the hotel room was a bit small. So after coming home I enjoyed to stretch my legs in hot water in my bathroom :) Also my own pillow felt so comfortable after sleeping on an unfamiliar bedding. I enjoyed my trip very much, though I also felt the mild happiness in my house.

Now it's been a week after the trip, on every workday I go to the office, come home and have supper ... then just 1 or 2 hours left before going to bed. In those evening hours I'm generally tired, don't feel much motivation to do something. So I often take my rabbit Krurun up in my arms, hold her for a while. Her soft fur feels so nice to my cheek, her warmth soothes me much :) It's really, quiet and sheer happiness.

I like travel, and know I'm fortunate to be able to travel sometimes, but maybe the most fortunate thing is that I have this ordinary, usual life.

A beautiful life! Oh and many of the pillows in hotels and other places seem like a sack of sawdust to me...way too hard. I too, like my soft home pillow :)

Thank you.
And, haha, be careful! If we love our soft pillow too much, we won’t be able to travel… or, we’d have to bring it on every trip X)

I know what you mean by holding Krurun - I do it very often with Ollie. He is soft and always purrs but then I can feel the change and let him go.:-)

"Feel the change and let him go" - haha, I understand! Krurun is like that, she stays still in my arms for a while, seems to like being held ... but soon she demands me to let her go XD
