Nonetheless

On this very night, I found out that the job I wanted was given to someone else The day before, I suffered extreme back pain from my scoliosis Two weeks ago, the girl I wanted to date told me that we shouldn’t hang out anymore A month ago, my mother was scheduled for a surgery because of her bad heart And the month after that, I realized I did not have enough money to pay for my fall tuition Three years ago, my first girlfriend broke my heart And every day I miss her Seven years of my life and counting were spent working in a restaurant And two years ago I left my old college with an incomplete degree Nonetheless, I feel blessed Because for every sad day that passes, I also remember the most important thing During every second, I always had food, clothes, a home, and a loving circle of friends and family Every second I have a means of providing for myself and the ones I care for Every year I have received awards from my schools complimenting my hard work and involvement And every waking moment, I have a God who loves me Everything is awesome
