welcome fall!!!
ive had this conversation with several people. it seems to come up often. not sure why exactly. but, it only gets truer and truer.
im really lucky. sometimes i feel like a clown on a trapeze. there is this lofty safety net ready to catch me if i should happen to fall. it's there always, just waiting. i cant even imagine life without it.
in my life, my parents, my home community, my family are my safety net.
because of the comfort that they have given me, i have the gumption to walk out on a ledge and to take a risk. i know, without any doubts, that the people i love are going to catch me no matter what.
my security blanket, my harness, my helmet and knee pads. thanks for letting me have some spunk, cool people in my life. i owe ya a big one.
on a totally different note...
who wants to see this??? i do! yes, handmade, YES!

goodbye for now, not forever
two more days in the village. hard to believe, isn't it? i have absolutely no clue where the last year of my life has gone. i don't know how long it will be before i can accurately articulate what i've gained from being here, however something that is already apparent to me is a newfound hope in the world... kind of a new appreciation towards idealism and optimism. in the village i've seen hope in a world where it is too easy to see despair. i have encountered love in a society where loneliness is widespread. i have witnessed creation amongst destruction.
in leaving i have discovered something that i absolutely didn't expect. my departure provides a great opportunity for friends, acquaintances, fellow coworkers, and villagers alike to share with me thoughts, perceptions, gratitude, etc. that probably would have stayed under wraps if i was staying here. it has been the ultimate gift and an eye-opener.
