So we’re at the end of week three and I don’t really think we all quite know how much we are changing as the days go by. We’re learning a lot (so much about HIV/AIDS but also about ourselves), we’re eating a lot (the FOOD rocks), some might be crying a lot (not me… hee hee), we’re walking a lot (the hills here are just sooo intense, which means nice looking booties J),we’re also living a lot. We’re beginning to see how life outside the comforts of the U.S. really is. I guess I shouldn’t say we but I… Hiding within all these “a lots” is a new sense of respect and admiration for Africa, a love really. The children that follow you around are amazing, the roosters at 4 A.M. are amazing, the stars are amazing, the rain is amazing, I have really just fallen in love with this experience. I try to think of where else I could be maybe graduate school or maybe at some case worker job that only a bachelor in psychology can give you? But I don’t think the Roselia in these shoes would really be comfortable with the Roselia in the other shoes… and I can only say this because I am here. So I have decided to never stop living for adventure and in adventure, life is seriously way too short to not fall in love with ourselves and be happy with this.
