50 Things That I love

Can I reach 50? Let’s see!

I am taking this “50 things that you love challenge” from Linda Ng followed by Marta Henriques , and finally reaching me through Blogs by J.

Although it’s already more than a month since this challenge was announced, I read it just yesterday.

I also read all three blogs that I linked with their names and found out it was not an easy task for them to list 50 things they loved. It looked fascinating to me so I decided to participate.

Let’s see how many I can list. I will list everything that I love including people, places, things, and whatever comes to mind.

1. My family, my first love.
2. Friends in my inner circle.
3. Independence.
4. My Job because it makes me independent.
5. God.
6. My phone with the internet because I can’t live without it.
7. Shopping.
8. Cooking.
9. Fast Foods.
10. Spices and sauces.
11. Spring and Autumn seasons (Though I can’t enjoy much in spring because of my pollen allergy).
12. Rain from my window with tea and pakora (an Indian snack made up of potatoes).
13. Playing Table Tennis.
14. Swimming.
15. Fitness.
16. Bollywood movies — mostly Romcoms, thrillers and suspense.
17. Pakistani Dramas.
18. Indian Web Series.
19. Indian Street Foods.
20. Getting dressed.
21. Jewellery.
22. Watches.
23. Shoes and sandals: Fun fact — I match my footwear and wristwatch with my dress.
24. Travelling to new places. Just to take pride that I have travelled to so many countries. Kidding. Okay — somewhat true, but not completely.
25. Nature. Like tall mountains and greenery and a lake at the foot of the mountain. Oh! it has my heart.
26. Making fun of my siblings to tease them.
27. Buying gifts for my loved ones.
28. Receiving gifts. Actually, I love receiving gifts, that’s why I give gifts. The chances of receiving increase when you give. I follow the rule — Give more if you want to receive more!
29. Helping the poor and needy. Try it, the satisfaction you feel after that is extraordinary.
30. Making people happy.
31. Writing on Medium.
32. Reading all kinds of stories related to personal experiences. If that’s your niche, drop by in the comments and you have already found a loyal reader.
33. Appreciating the beauty.
34. Long drives especially at night.
35. Gossiping.
36. I know it’s a bad habit, but I am only writing what I love. When my best friend calls me, we gossip for hours. We phone once a month or so and the call lasts never less than 3 hours.
37. Gardening.
38. Taking pictures mostly selfies.
39. Celebrating birthdays, anniversaries and everything else.
40. Celebrating small milestones.
41. Giving surprises.
42. Getting in touch with an old friend.
43. Wasting time on social media by mindlessly scrolling through my feeds.
44. Encouraging people to reach their goals.
45. Decorating my home.
46. Budget planning. I plan each time but fail! 😢
47. Making new friends.
48. Speaking up for the oppressed.
49. Oh, Sleeping — How did I miss mentioning this until this point?
50. The picnic involves outdoor cooking.

Those are the 50 things that I love. It was not that hard for me to name them. I can write many more.

However, it was fun writing about it. It helped me remember the good things about my life and be thankful for what I have got.

I hope you had fun reading it too.
