It’s our One Month Anniversary (
Being here has been an absolutely wonderful journey, yet I hardly know where to begin. I have learned so much about this country and of course about myself. Everything in
My biggest pet peeve of course is: being late. However, I love it here. I love that everything from transportation to checking-out at the local supermarket takes thirty more minutes than you planned. Everyone knows everything is late, so grace is given and expected. Although it was difficult at first coming from the culture we do, surrounded by fast-paced life and at the very least a cell phone –now I wonder the disaster I’ll be at my first job interview post college.
Post college huh? Well, that has not really sunk in yet. I imagine that it will not until December, but I of course I think it’s pretty great to not be going to classes everyday (for now)
As for me, I’ve learned a ton and grown even more. I know that this process is never done, but I greatly appreciate where I am at right now and the person I am today. Wonderful feeling really. Furthering this kingdom does not, should not, and will not always look like what you expect. Day in and day out I am shocked by things I see that are positive and truly making a difference in the world. Ministries that take place here are not always organized and never are perfect, but change is being done.
I am simply a worker bee, not the queen bee.
Happy One Month Anniversary!
