You know those days when it seems the world isn't on your side? When everything seems to go wrong.
However trivial (乏味的)? Well, now there's a cure-a website with the sole aim of putting a smile on your
face. The site 1000 awesomethings.com. lists those small, everyday pleasures which make life worthwhile
from finding a missing sock to pushing the button for the lift and finding that it is already waiting.
It is the brainchild of Neil Pasricha, 30, who, beset by personal problems (his wife left him, for a start),
decided to write down one happy thought every day for 1 000 days.
Since Neil launched the website in June 2008, it has had 17 million visitors and currently attracts more
than 50 000 people a day. Here are some of the most fanciful ideas but heart-warming thoughts...
-Drawing on steamed-up mirrors with your fingers
-Seeing on the television that the weather is much worse somewhere else
-Throwing something at the rubbish bin and getting it in
-When a book opens on the page you were looking for
-Brushing your teeth with a new toothbrush
-When the phone rings and it's the person you were just thinking about
-When the thing you were already going to buy is reduced in the sale
-Laughing at friends' passport photographs
