Today I'm thankful for some beautiful children of God. My housemate is the sweetest and is writing notes for his girlfriend for every weekday she is away in Denmark for four months! Today I was also blessed to be able to talk hoops with him and his friend who is visiting, to just catch up and relax with one of my best friends (who gave me a most wonderful Christmas gift of a 1 Corinthians 13:13 silver bracelet because she knows I love 1 Cor 13!), to receive lovely all-staff email by my new boss at the Y welcoming me, and to be sent home from an awesome coffeehouse at the Cottage with homemade spinach dip and dessert salad because they know I'm an alum fending for myself and attempting to feed myself.
Random but helpful life thought today: when one has a bad hair day, wear a hat! My fellow curly-girls, why stress about unruliness? Today I'm thankful I can keep a newsboy around.
Another realization: my "Purchased on iTunes" playlist reflects my priorities as of late: a whole lot of Christian music and a whole lot of Latin music. So many smiles.
My night was capped off by an intelligent conversation on human rights, socialism, and Cuban politics on Facebook after I posted my first travel blog entry on Cuba (http://kemstravels.blogspot.com/ if you're interested!). You never know whose interest will be piqued or who will be inspired by what you put out there, but to see one of my best high school friends and one of my high school Spanish teacher commenting, how amazing is that!
