One of my favorite things about the internet
is when I randomly and accidentally stumble upon a website that I did not know existed; yet brings me great joy to browse and read. Today, I was procrastinating a little in the library, and unexpectedly found a website which I was unaware. It's not that it's going to change my life forever, it's just a pleasant feeling to find something good in the midst of all the randomness out there on this world wide web. It probably won’t have the same impact on me tomorrow or the next time I visit the site, but for a few moments it made me smile. I don't think it was the website itself that made me excited (because truthfully, it's not that great) but it was more the unexpected discovery itself. A similar reaction could be expected if I were to drive through some particularly beautiful scenery as I am going somewhere I have yet not been, or if my channel surfing results in finding a good movie that I have not seen. So although the experience itself is pleasant (the scenery or movie), the joy of the actual discovery in itself is of equal impact and importance.
