Normally, I take to my Instagram story to process through my “good list” aka the space where I take time to reflect in gratitude for the week. This is not to share how perfect life is, rather it’s a space to see the beauty in the midst of the mess. Trust me, my life is nowhere close to perfect. And this week sure as hell was not perfect. But there is still good.
- My laundromat is only 1.5 blocks away.
- Insurance that covers the dentist.
- Support from my bosses during technical difficulties.
- Sitting for lunch during the lull at work with a sweet co-worker. She is encouraging and fun to be around.
- A food show that let us be together even with COVID restrictions in place.
- Allowing myself to fully experience the beauty of seemingly ordinary spaces – like the new and improved Penn Station.
- Warm socks.
- Book club. I love them. They help keep me grounded.
- Adventure day with my cousin. We decided to play tourist in our city and enjoy a rooftop day – first to the Empire State Building, then to One World Observatory.
- I work with great teams, both in my non-profit and at the cafe. I could not be successful anywhere without the many people who work next to me.
May my eyes be opened to see where God is already at work around me. May I experience the width and depth of peace in this season, despite the chaos around me. As Light shines through, may I soak it in as I live it out.
