So today, I am asking for that small act of kindness. My name is Amina Hamlet, and as a 16 year old, African-American female,  the future is more likely to be withheld from us. I have always wanted to have the best out of life, regardless of the challenges...I always dreamt of continuing my education in college, running my own business, owning a home, and living a happy and financially stable life, however, hard work and determination can only go so far in my situation. Coming from a  complicated background of historic financial instability, and harsh  impracticable environment, I need a boost. My hopes for the future is burdened by the lack of support, and as a teen there isn't much I can do. I want to make the most out of life and be sure of my future.

So, today I am asking for assistance. I am asking you to help change my life in all ways. I am asking you to support me in all areas and I am asking for your small act of kindness. I'm a kid who has dreamt of a bright future, and I need that support. Thank you so much for supporting my journey, your share/donation matters.

Hi everyone! 

I can’t help myself, I finished another really entertaining book today. It is soon to be released as a movie in theaters by the same title, “Ready Player One” by Ernest Cline. This is Cline’s first novel and it is one of great fun. If you are knowledgeable and revel in the 1980’s you will likely enjoy this book, there are countless 80’s references. The book is set in a dystopian 2044 where the world has basically been left to fall apart and the only solace of humanity is to plug into a virtual reality called the OASIS. The novel follows Wade and some of his “friends in the making” in their quest to take down a utilitarian corporation while solving the riddles left by the OASIS’s creator. Although this novel is on the fun side of the scale it does hint at the basic natural points that reality will always be the better option and that running away from reality indefinitely can’t be on the table.

Lately I’ve been doing a gradual clean out of the house and with some things I no longer want or need I post them for sale online. A few weeks ago I had cleaned out the store room and found some shelving units I no longer needed and posted them, and today a lady came to buy them. While we were loading her car we got to talking as she was telling me her intentions for the shelves which involved her opening her own daycare centre. Normally, with my online sales and I’m sure many people share the same type of experience, you say “hi”, you exchange the item for the money and everyone is on their way. Rarely do things turn into a full conversation, but today that its what happened, and I have to say it was quite nice making a new acquaintance. I hope our paths cross again at some point. Today’s random act of kindness: befriending a stranger.
