It was a rainy Sunday in the east of this small little island. The rain was really heavy and it rained from the late morning till the evening time.
“What a complete wash-out of a beautiful Sunday”, I thought to myself at 11.45am . 
Today could have been a day full of activities for me, as I had planned to go out for a swim, meet my friends for coffee and than a dinner with family and maybe to catch a show. However, it was not meant to be.
I don’t normally like raining days, as at times I felt trapped by it and it immobilised me from doing the things i want to do, especially when i was about to go out or when I’m outside wanting to go home or going to another places.
I only liked it when I’m about to go to sleep or taking a nap, a raining weather always help to cultivate the sleepiness.
Therefore, without surprise I began to feel sleepy and I slept my half Sunday away.
Upon waking up, I was mad about myself as I could have spent the sleeping time to do something else, like work that still waiting for me to accomplish, calls that I supposed to make, tasks that I supposed to do and many more things……. I was really mad 
but suddenly, another thought strikes me, and it was saying…
”Cool it! Jones!!! relax, no need to be angry, just ask yourself when was the last time you get to enjoy an afternoon nap and allow yourself to wake up naturally….was it just yesterday? a few week ago or was it a few months ago?” and the answer was it might be more than 6 months ago.
I can’t really remember when was the last time I had a good “lazy” Sunday afternoon nap and it really does seem like a long long time ago.
Regardless, it just make me felt that like I deserved this nap.
Not long after I woke up, I noticed that my family members had also slept through the afternoon too and my mum, my sister and bro, soon woke up one after another and the time was about 5.30pm.
Interestingly, when we were all up and went sitting down on the sofa, we were looking and smiling at each other, that feeling was like so warm and it was like, “oh man, this is a good Sunday”
At this moment, I also realised that, it been a long long time since the family had a real good chance of sitting down as a family infront of the TV set after waking up in our nature state, in a sunday evening.
Soon , my mum asked if we were hungry and we said ”Yes” and she started cooking, next thing we knew, we were eating dinner together, watching “Shrek the Third” on TV, followed by NEWS and “超级星光大道6″ together.
Nothing much was said during the process, but it was a really warm and cosy evening and it’s like “WOW” it’s a feeling that I had not have experienced for a long long time.
It might sounds normal Sunday for many of you out there, but for me, this Sunday had been a priceless moment for me. Maybe, my guess is that I might have been doing so much things and running everywhere for the past few months that I had forget that a Sunday like this is just what I really want for now. 
And of course a moment like this, has also sparked me to start blogging down my thoughts again. (after 8 months) so, Welcome back, my friends.
