Between Waiting and Greece 🕞🇬🇷

Hello everyone! ☺️

Welcome to a new update. As you may notice, I have a little more time on my hands right now since I'm posting again already. Not much has actually happened, but I can already share the joyful news that I have successfully completed my bachelor's degree. 🥳 I received the notification right on July 1. I'm totally fine with the result of my bachelor’s thesis, even though I feel it could have been a bit better. 😉😄 Thus, I’m concluding my studies with a solid 2.2.

Another piece of good news is that I have been offered a place in the master’s program (M.A. in Multimedia Production). 😃 I also applied for a TV internship, for which I had an interview at the end of June. I should know by July 22 whether they will accept me or not. However, that would involve moving again since the internship would be in Mannheim and start on September 1.

I’m feeling a bit up in the air right now and asking myself some questions. What is the right path? What would I do if both options were available to me? How would it even work out with moving and terminating my current job and apartment in such a short time? And then I reflect on what it says in 1 Peter 5:7: “Cast all your anxieties on him, for he cares for you.” It’s reassuring that I can surrender all of this and trust God will show me the right path, and that doors will open and close as they should. And if not, He leaves us the freedom to choose and walks with us down whichever path we take (of course, I'm hoping I won't have to make a decision 🙈). Because for me, there are pros on one side and cons on the other for both locations. I will definitely keep you updated! In the next blog post, you will know whether I will stay in Ansbach for another 1 1/2 to 2 years or take a chance on a fresh start in Mannheim. 🤓

So, I'm not just dealing with this situation, but also with two other things that are on my mind right now. For one, there have been some disagreements between me and my church. I find myself wondering why, and why now, when I might not be in Ansbach much longer anyway? 😅 Then I thought I would be better off letting go of the final getting-to-know-you phase. Spoiler: It’s not easy to let go of something that has meant a lot to you. But sometimes you need to look after yourself and see if you can handle what’s being thrown at you or not. In this case, it wasn't sufficient, but that doesn't mean that something wasn't beautiful or significant.

Do you know that
