If I ever been asked about what am I grateful for, my friends would definitely be on top of that list, they’re my supporters and the place that I go to when I need any help they will always be there for me, the second thing that I would say I’m grateful for would be the community that I found, they offered me tons of opportunities and jobs that helped me shape my identity, I was a very introverted guy who wouldn’t talk to anyone except two friends from school, because of the community I found now I am an extrovert that makes connections with great people and local intrapreneurs, another thing I’m grateful for is that I worked too hard on being myself and I will forever be grateful for that, also I am grateful for all the experiences I’ve been through that taught me a lot, I am grateful for all the things I have in my life, from the good social status to being one of the school’s elites that participate and win global olympics, I am grateful for my parents who worked really hard on me, I am grateful for my grandpa who worked day and night on his business that grew and grew bigger, I am grateful for the luck that I have in many situations in my life(although it failed me in some), I am grateful for the digital exchange programs that I participated in, it taught me a lot about socializing and I met many great friends through that we became best friends and co-workers, finally I am grateful for music and coffee for being in my life.
