I was inspired by Neil Pasricha's excellent blog 1000 Awesome Things (1000awesomethings.com), but decided that a moment of gratitude a day would suffice for now. After all, the best way to be happier is to be more grateful for what you already have.

#15 Riding a bike
Learning to ride a bike when I was at the grand old age of 24 was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Since then, it's been a form of exercise for me, and it saves me time and money travelling to school. For years, I was tormented by dreams where I thought I had learnt to ride, only to awake and realise otherwise. Since then, I've tried to make up for lost time, riding every day to work or anywhere in Punggol, Sengkang and Hougang. Since getting my bike in 2007, I've more than covered the cost, despite splurging on headlights, panniers, seats etc. The 3373km I've cycled so far could have taken me to Bangalore. Yes - Bangalore. Next stop - Beijing. I owe an eternal debt to Jon Tay, my cycling 师父.
