I strongly encourage you to read about Hannah in First Book of Samuel 1. Year after year she carried disappointment and unanswered prayers, yet she kept pouring her heart out before God. In the very place where she wept, God gave her Samuel. Never let delay convince you that God said no. Keep praying and speaking hope over your waiting season.
Moment when neighbors throw a get together to celebrate Greg, their beloved long time UPS driver. Greg is known as always going above and beyond for everyone on his route. So the neighborhood came together to surprise him and show their gratitude or all he does.
I saw a girl say that when she feels stuck, she imagines she's 85 years old and gets one chance to come back to her younger self for one day, suddenly, everything feels like magic again, the walk, the music, the sunlight, live everyday like that.

Genuine question, what do kids and tweens watch these days? What’s their High School Musical, Hannah Montana, Cheetah Girls, Wizards of Waverley Place, Camp Rock, Sonny with a Chance, That’s so Raven, Lizzie McGuire,Suite Life,etc? We had so much, and they seemingly have nothing?
Every country has an energy. And that energy rewires you whether you notice it or not. People move to Japan and become minimal. People move to Mexico and their entire relationship with time softens. People move to New York and suddenly they can't sit still. Your personality is far more malleable than you think. We treat it like something fixed, but new surroundings give you new defaults. New pace. New habits. New values absorbed through proximity instead of effort. You're not just the average of the 5 people closest to you. You're the average of the 5 places, the 5 routines, and the 5 inputs you're exposed to most. Your commute shapes you. The weather shapes you. Every space you occupy is voting on who you become. That's why I believe choosing where you live is one of the most important decisions you'll ever make. More important than your job title. Maybe more important than your five-year plan. Because the place shapes the plan. The place shapes your energy, your habits, your relationships, your default state. Get the place right and half of the other decisions start making themselves. Get it wrong and you'll fight yourself every day.
