am I ungrateful?

November 13, 2024

5:33am- do not trust it. That's how that dream ended. What a weird dream. Kinda scary to be honest.

6:44am-last week was pretty good actually.

everything is down though. I gotta get active again get moving.

6:44pm- another long day of work. I just got off.. I was thinking if I wanna get healthcare or do I wanna wait another year... Today was kinda emotional honestly. She was on my mind a lot. But I just ignored it and prayed. I should be happy, I'm literally on the verge of living my dream. Of accomplishing major goals in my life but still yet I'm hurt and thinking of her.

7:44pm- look what Mer got me.

when she took her trip. The toucan is from El Salvador. Now this put a smile on my face. This made me feel good.

8:55pm- I did good last month with my YouTube.

the key is consistency. Gotta keep putting out content. I'm thinking about starting another channel just for my lives. I think I wanna start doing that. Going live while making my shows then editing the lives to create the shows for the channel with shows. So Joseph Bristol live is my live channel and the channel with shows is my YouTube station channel. I still wanna start that business.

9:18pm- I'm about to go to bed. I'm getting tired. I thank God for my life.
