I BLOG WHEN I WANT!!!

So its been about a month now and I feel it’s time to TOTALLY blog about it. “It” being this trip…that I am on… at this moment… right now…

Michel Jackson’s death effected me in ways I still do not understand. I feel like I lost a father… or a really creepy neighbor who watches you eat through the window.

To be serious, I found it hard to blog about something I didn’t fully understand. I still can’t grasp the scope of this trip or the impact it will have on me, but I can begin to try. First of all I am blown away at the level of generosity that I have witnessed on this trip. I have a new found faith in people, that much I know. There have been moments on this trip that words will never be able to describe. More moments are coming. Finally, I have come to understand that a life rich in experience is the richest way of living.
