Heyyy

I am in such a good mood today! In this post I mentioned that I didn’t have a job and couldn’t seem to find one, and I was really restless and bored. God is real, and God is good. I applied for a bunch of different things,and wasn’t getting responses or anything.

The amazing thing is, between then and now, I have a job for the summer and possibly one for next semester. Now, the money that I have here is mainly from my student job because I don’t want my mother to send me money from Ghana. What with the exchange rate and bank fees it’s too much stress on her. The idea then of not having a job or a way to pay my bills over the school year was pretty terrifying. But, God came though as He always does. I don’t deserve it, I know I don’t but He always sees me through.

So, the thing I’d like for us all, whether or not we believe in God, to do today is make a list- a list of everything you’re thankful for today. Just today. We get bogged down by everything that goes wrong in our lives, how much stress we have, how scared we are, how inadequate we feel, and we usually fail to maintain grateful hearts for everything we do have, and everything that does go right.

I’d love it if you’d share some of the things you’re thankful for in the comments below.

Also, following from last week, how did your week of being you go?

I’ll be honest, I’m not very good at being my own best friend. And it hit me really hard this past week. There are so many influences and bad habits that I keep in my life knowing that they are doing me no good. This week I’m going to be working on distancing myself from them, and realizing that I love myself to not let things that keep me down keep me down. I hope you all join me!

Let me know how your week has been, how your life has been, I’d love to know who you are, reading this post.

I’m also so excited for the future with this blog because there are some things I want to change up with its overall aesthetic that are coming together piece by piece.

Peace, love, and funk,

Amoafoa.
