"I live not in dreams, but in contemplation of a reality that is perhaps the future."
~Rainer Maria Rilke

I know what I see- There is grace at work, here.

Another Year, Another Adventure

So I'm now about a month out from my medical mission trip to Kehancha, Kenya... And excited doesn't even begin to describe it... From the moment I boarded a plane from Lima, Peru last July I think I knew that I would do this again... And as always God seems to have had a plan for me because Africa has been on my list of top 5 places to see before I die since I was a little girl... I can't imagine a more incredible place to visit...

Anyhow... I just wanted to go ahead and start this blog a little earlier this year... Not so much to keep evryone updated as to store and keep my own thoughts for future reference... Of all the things I brought with me back from Peru, the most valuable thus far have been the photos and worn composition notebook that I faithfully wrote in every single night while I was in Peru... It is an incredible feeling now to look back on my thoughts and feelings throughout every step of my journey there last year.... But this year, since I know what I'm getting into emotionally, I thought I'd attempt to record some of my thoughts and preparations beforehand as well....

So here I am again....
