Bonsoir mes amis! Happy Friday, and Happy April! Welcome back to Weekly Gratitude where I share 5 things from Monday to Friday that I was grateful for. If you’re seeing this on a Saturday or Sunday and had written things down for the week I’d love it if you could share something below! Eventually, it would be great if we both came to share our gratitude on these posts. Expressing gratitude isn’t the easiest thing and sometimes doing it with someone else can help, I feel. It’s what helped me (along with time) and if we hold this space for both of us then perhaps it will inspire us to…

Bonsoir mes amis! I realize that I’m a day late, and while the perfectionist in me prefers to do something exactly as I’d envisioned it or not at all: late is better than never. Also, it’s the last weekend of March which means I’ll be retiring the image you see above. I love this image so much but I want to challenge my aversion to change and switch out my ‘gratitude post’ image every month. Baby steps. Also, I thought it would be fun to have a new image every month and once the the month was over, on the last gratitude post, reveal some details about it. I might…

Happy Friday mes amis (my friends)! If you saw Tuesday’s post then you know that France and French will forever hold a special place in my heart. True, my French is not so good, but I’m working on it and I’d like to incorporate some of it here from time to time. Hence, mes amis. I love the sound of that- plus, if you’re taking the time to read this then I do consider you my friend! This week seemed to fly by in the blink of an eye; I truly can’t believe it’s Friday again. Perhaps this is a good thing as my life feels like it’s at a…

Happy Friday everyone! Wow, is it really March already? I can’t decide if the past year has flown by or dragged on. Regardless, there’s no way around it: it’s March. What does that mean for you guys? What does it make you think of? For me, it makes me think of bittersweet times as I was living in France last March, going to university as usual, not knowing that soon after President Macron would announce one of the strictest country-wide lockdowns. I’ll never forget those last few weeks and all those ensuing feelings. Perhaps I’ll talk about that in a future blogpost. For now, let’s continue on to the second…

Happy Friday everyone! Today I would like to introduce a feature that will become a staple here on Everything Ami. The Weekly Gratitude series is one that will go up every Friday at 7pm PST and will list 5 things that I’m grateful for for that particular week. My aim in creating this series is to shift my mind to a state of gratitude as I feel better when I’m in this state, although like many, I do struggle to make time to reflect on this. Although I will publish only 5 things I’m grateful for on Fridays, the goal is for me to actually list 3 things I am…
