Last month, my friend Lindsay sent me this "Journal of Awesome" in the mail that's full of doodles and space allotted for daily entries about whatever makes the current day awesome. It's gotten me in the happy habit of capturing pleasant thoughts that are the product of this time in my life.
Today I want to share something awesome! You know that Sunday afternoon feeling that makes you want cry a little inside when it hits you that the following day is Monday? I don't get that anymore. Every Sunday, I remember 'wait, my job and the people I work with are very pleasant'. That's no small deal! What does that say about what I do every day?
Time on earth's all about quality of life and enjoying the ride, isn't it? So wait, could it be that there are jobs that allow for this kind of experience back home? Something about being in Spain makes me seek things out that I wouldn't think of back home. But hey! They have cool jobs, nose piercings, hair dye, messenger bags, and approachable strangers in the USA! Right?
I'll keep attempting to capture these memories in journal entries, pictures, and videos so I'll one day be able to draw from this time in my life and remember what made it work so well.
Dear future self, please take care of your friends and yourself as you move forward, and keep Spanish in your life.
Happy Monday!
