Sweet Little Things

I am so easy to please I can't stand it. 

Summarizing 2015, it was quite a feat for me to survive. Accepted in my dream major, participating in a PSM-ITB concert as a singer, while doing so many other things at hand, it's safe to say it's one of my most productive year. But it's not all rainbows and sparks for there's some failure I had to face and accept. College life-- it's not only about grades and grades. 

So I began 2016 in a quite somber mood, still trying to be as positive as possible though. I believe God has prepared the best way for me and when a door's closed, another is open. 

Today I felt happy, to sweet little things. The thing is, I lack the tendency to show affection. That doesn't mean I don't long for it because this morning as I was teaching the children in Primary Sabbath School class, this certain girl called Chira hugged me and I felt so comforted in so many ways. Talking about kids,  aren't their small hands the cutest thing ever?!?!? I might have taken an unusual liking to hold such tiny hands (and I can't wait to hold my own kids' hands later this is off the record okay)

When the year ends the church tends to give children gifts and snacks (oh the good old times I remembered my childhood it's sad I'm turning 20 this year). So when a mother in the church called for me despite the ongoing Sabbath school class I'm taken aback to what was needed of me. Turns out that I was given a gift too ("a token of appreciation because you taught them last year"), containing some snacks and a Tupperware - just what I needed for real! I was just only thinking to go buy a new one and here I am with a brand-new free lunchbox. I can only relay my gratitude to the church and praise God in my heart tremendously. 

I am so pleased today and this is quite a boost for me starting anew~
