On a positive note...

I'm thankful for the beautiful mountains that are visible from most streets;
for the opportunity to spend a year abroad in a foreign country with a different language
(can you believe I said that? I did and do actually appreciate these challenges, I think...);
for the responsibility to only work less that 20 hours a week (will never happen again!);
for the time to research and pray about what to do next year;
for the English-French Christian radio station;
for the opportunity to call Dad and Mom occassionally;
for health;
for faith;
for God.
