Blogger Neil Pasricha uses the power of the Internet to encourage optimism, highlighting the simple pleasures that make life worth living. From warm clothes taken straight out of the dryer to free refills in a restaurant, Pasricha illustrates how small pleasures lift individuals out of tough situations.

The blogger shares his family's immigration to Canada, explaining how their happiness often came from simple pleasures that included having running water and electrical power.
