There is this Hyderabadi( my city ) thing, where in you treat your friend with food when 1. they take you shopping( or atleast when they accompany you) 2. when something good happens to you or when something good happens to someone you care about. Well in my case both happened this afternoon and I paid for my friends lunch in the mall today and also told him why this treat was for! I felt good when I did that in a city which is NOT mine and in a place where others didnt expect it from you. That was an impromptu positive emotion inducer. I suddenly felt nostalgic and at the same time very happy. And soon after I came to my apartment I began writing about it here and everything came in a flow( as if I was re-living the joyous moments again) and it took me less time to complete what I wanted to express. After a heavy lunch I
usually laze around and try to complete my work in the evening(late evening rather ;) ) but I knew this was what I was going to write about.
Well if I did this act of paying for my friend's lunch, I believe 2 things will happen 1. I will, in very less time have a lot of friends hanging around me after church and 2. I will be broke a lot sooner than anticipated :P . Jokes apart, I felt that work done after happy/joyous momemts didnt feel like work at all( atleast on this specific occasion). I believe that we can generalize this and try to BE +ve.
