This poem was inspired by my grandmother. She was smart, goal-driven, God-fearing, and much, much more. Her warmth, love, and kindness are unmatched. Last year, I decided to use my love for poetry and German to create an ode for the women I so strongly strive to emulate. Hope you enjoy it. <3

Du sind hell mögen die Morgenstrahlen vom Himmel kommen

Und du sind warm mögen ein Sommertag

Du sind der Schlüssel das entriegelt das versprechen zu einem anderen tag

Und ihre Bekannten sind die Stars

Oh, ich sehe den Sonnenschein in deinen Augen

Und ich fühle die Liebe die von deinem Herzen ausstrahlt

Oh, ich sehe das Licht das du zum Leben erweckst

Und ich fühle, wie großartig du diese Welt erlebst

Oh, ich sehe den Sonnenschein in deinen Augen

Du sind ein Diamant das leuchtet ach so hell

Und du sind das kostbarste Juwel unter allen

Du sind die Hoffnung, die mich die ganze Nacht über ruhig atmen lässt

Und dein ältester Freund ist der Mond

Oh, ich sehe den Sonnenschein in deinen Augen

Und ich fühle die Liebe die von deinem Herzen ausstrahlt

Oh, ich sehe das Licht das du zum Leben erweckst

Und ich fühle, wie großartig du diese Welt erlebst

Oh, ich sehe den Sonnenschein in deinen Augen

College students, you might be able to relate to this one. These probably sound familiar because we often tell ourselves these phrases; however, we are unable to follow or agree with these the following, deep down inside of our overwhelmed, tired minds.

1. "No more spending money on useless things"

Until you walk into a 99 cents store and suddenly have the urge to pick up anything that's less than a dollar.

A List Of 26 Little Things That I Am Grateful For

Just a small part of a much longer list.

Elmira College

For the past few months, I have not been my usual happy-go-lucky-self for a number of reasons, but one thing that has been helping me is to think about all of the little things in my life that I am thankful for. I know this might seem really cliché, but it is so true. I cannot stress enough how much better I feel when I think about all the great people and privileges I have in my life. It makes all of the insignificant things that I am stressing about or worrying about in my head seem not nearly as bad. I have decided to make a list of 26 things (out of many more) in my life that I am especially thankful for.
