I feel happy. Really happy.

Recently I've felt more like myself.

I'm grateful to be here. I thank God for his steadfast character and patience. I'm surrounded by people I love in San Francisco. I love my family. I love my boyfriend. I feel blessed to learn from him everyday. I'm grateful to grow alongside him.

Today was a wonderful day. This is a note to my future self. It's important for us to create artifacts to rediscover. One might even call them breadcrumbs.

I wonder who else will find this note. Maybe my parents. Hi Mom! Hi Dad! If you're reading this, I want you to know that I love you both very much. I'm so proud to be your daughter. Thank you for all you have done to raise me.

I like writing simply. There's many "I" sentences in this, and that's okay. This is how I feel right now.

Today I prayed that God would root me more deeply in Him. That He would open my heart and increase my patience. There are many ways I fall short. And that's okay; I'm not my own saviour. I'm saved by grace. The sermons at Church have resonated with me recently. Faith as Reality: a journey through Romans.

An aside: I'm writing this in Antigravity and I keep getting tab suggestions and it's pissing me off. I'm disabling them in the settings.json as I type this now. Dude.

I just want a nook of the internet that's mine! But, to be fair, this site was written with many an agent. I digress.

Anyway. Life is good, and I'm grateful to be here.

The world can be such a beautiful place.
