222: external work

Today I am thankful for work. For surprise careers. For purpose. For external structure.

I may have spent the last several hours of my weekend grading. And I'll probably spend a couple (several) days late at school this week finishing end of the quarter grading, preparing for our annual mock election, and, I almost forgot, Thursday night is our Fall Concert, but...

It is a blessing to have something to pour my time into that is fulfilling as a single.

I feel very inadequate right now, and looking at grades is not the nicest way to begin a new week, but...

This is my single life. What God has granted me. And it is definitely good.

I am participating in "Write 31 Days," where a bunch of bloggers write...for 31 days. My theme is "This My Single Life," with a focus on the blessings of this season. Hopefully it's obvious to anyone who knows me or has read my blog that I want to be married and have kids. But at 32 years old, I am quite single, and I think it's God-glorifying to highlight the good things God has given me with singleness. Click here to access the links for my 31 days of writing!
