What do you want for Christmas?
I want to feel fulfilled for the work I did this year – what do you want? 12 of the latest paying opportunities you'd love
Hey, Lounger
If you want to make some money before this year runs out, then I have some gigs plus some very personal thoughts.
In the days that I used to try being influential on Facebook, I liked to ask this question every year. I could not give people what they wanted; I wasn't God and I didn't have money. But I liked to see people dream and wish for the 'magic' or 'miracles' of Christmas.
My mutuals would flood my comments section— prayers and tears and wishes— and I'd read and pray that they got what they wanted. I also had a habit of listing what I wanted first, letting myself and them feel the vulnerability of asking about your deepest wants in the face of the public.
My mother has always been a firm believer of the 11th-hour miracle and it's not far-fetched that I think that it exists seeing the influence she had on us. I and thousands of other people believe it — that when you've given hope, God answers. Ironically, that's even when we have more hope so let's just leave the definition at when it has seemingly become late. I think that's better suited.
I’m asking for fulfilment this year, not because I won't appreciate money and other material things (nb: send me money o), but I don't feel like I did enough even when I know I DID. I DID, bruh. I've been trying to share my wins more — gave testimony in church, shared them with my friends — but I don't still feel accomplished and as much as I want this feeling to go away, I know why.
Tracking my expenses and my invoices have been nearly impossible. I've spent a lot on my family and foodstuff alone this year, gosh. It's one of my biggest problems. The cost of living is so bad that as I make money, it leaves through one channel or another.
My current savings can't honestly meet up with how I've worked and what I worked on this year, and even though I'm still owed huge sums that I'm not sure will be renumerated, I don't feel like I did enough. I know and have heard that I inspire people, but I don't inspire myself so much.
So I'm asking for the gift of feeling fulfilled, happy with myself, with my current path and what the future holds. I've done so much, gotten some nearly impossible wins, but I want to feel it. I want my soul to reminisce in my amazingness because commonnn, I'm amazing, for real.
What do you want for Christmas? I might be able to help, I might not.
