A small joy of today

by

This morning, I woke up as usual. At 5:45 am, I was contemplating whether to go for a run or head to work early, as this question arises in my mind every day. Eventually, I decided to go for a 30-minute run. Starting the run was quite challenging; my heart rate was elevated and sustained that level for the first 700 meters. However, after running for 1 kilometer, I started feeling better, focusing on the pace of my steps and regulating my breathing. I completed a total of 3.3 kilometers within 30 minutes.

Upon returning from my run, I headed up to the rooftop to tend to my plants. I brought up two “golden fish plants” to replant in the rooftop pot because they were wilting. When I opened the pot, I found that there were no roots left. I worried that they would die, but I still hoped that they could come back to life

I arrived at the company at 7:59 am, just in time to check in. It was a weekend with many tasks waiting for me. Today, I worked for 8 hours, including 4 hours in meetings. I hope everything goes smoothly today. This afternoon, I plan to go swimming for an hour, and I will set aside some time for myself tonight.

This morning, I attended a meeting on the new design for an application, and there were many things that needed to be agreed upon. The designs had to be extensively modified to produce the final version. The UI design team had to be aware of many intricate details. I felt very anxious as the modifications might lead to many changes in the code.
