Here is what calms my soul on days when I feel like Spain has knocked the wind out of me:
(today happens to be one of those days)

1. Hand-written letters from Grandma.
2. Amos Lee
3. 45 céntimos coffees from the machines around campus
4. Literature - currently: Fitzgerald´s Tender Is The Night
5. And most of all - sweet words from my Savior.

¨Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.¨ -Philippians 4:6-7


¨Sometimes we forget who we got,
Who they are.
Oh, who they are not.
There is so much more in love,
Than black and white.
Keep it loose child,
Gotta keep it tight.
Keep it loose child,
Keep it tight¨
- Amos Lee

¨....for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.¨-Philippians 4:11-13
