Daily Reflections
I just moved to a new country, still learning its culture and figuring out how to navigate life here. I currently have a part-time job, earning $22 an hour. It’s enough to cover my basic expenses, but not enough to save. I left my previous country hoping to find better opportunities here, thinking there was something greater waiting for me—but life here has been different than I imagined. The convenient, comfortable life I once had is gone. Now, I have to be intentional with every dollar, live below my means, and resist the temptation to buy things I see on e-commerce apps, only to close them and remind myself I can’t afford them.
