1. The comfort of a daily schedule. Often mistaken as 'boredom' :).
2. The presence of old friends. Even if you rarely meet them. Just knowing that they are there around the corner.
3. Perhaps the biggest one, good health.
Believe me it gets scary as any one of them is taken away. When its your last day at work in a place where you spent several years. Or leaving a place which you called home.
Leaving an old friend not knowing when will (if ever) you see him next.
It is at these times you realized how trivial were the issues on which you spent so much of thought.
Those small irrelevant things which were the cause of so much concern. Like getting late for office. Not being able to buy vegetables for a week. These were really non-issues.
As irrelevant as an year over a lifetime. It really doesnt matter if you spend a year or two doing nothing or anything you want. But we are so busy micromanaging our life that we forget to enjoy and take time off.
Life truly is too small to waste over petty things. And time heals everything. So anything which seems important right now will be forgotten before long.
