Day 1: the gift of hospitality
My first gift is the one of hospitality for my good friend Sara who urgently needed a place to stay for some time. When she called me last Saturday to ask if she could possibly stay with me for some days I immidiately said yes. I live in a small student's apartment and there is really not much space for two persons, but it is actually working out good. It is a pleasure to me to have such a nice guest as my friend Sara around, who is a really tidy, respectful and also a very helpful person. Her staying here is turning out to be not only a gift from me to her but also a gift to myself since she is helping me out a lot too. Lately, I have had a very tough period when I have been feeling very down but Sara's presence is helping me to feel calmer and to cheer up with her positive attitude and great energy. She is also offering her good help with practical things I need to get done, like improving the presentation of my CV and learning how to use the sewing machine I inherited from my granny. So I feel very blessed to be able to give and to receive so much in return.
