Sitting on my front porch thinking how our trip was too short. Is anyone even looking at this blog anymore? The months of planning and getting support was all worth it I feel so heavy that my work isn't done there. I spent my day at work yesterday listening to whinning, complaining and entitlement. One of the translators had mentioned that America treats their prisoners better than Moldvan people are living non incarcerated. I was embarrassed. I read Seth's beautiful blog of our van ride there and wonder if he was in the same van! lol Fred, I and other's sat in the back, smelling the diesel, robbing our goose eggs on our heads from hitting the ceiling and eachother as the road put Michigan's to shame (almost)! Anyway, we were counting it ALL joy. My days and nights are filled with reflection and my nights are still restless. It has nothing to do with the time change and the jet lag was brief. I'm intensely listening for God's direction. Somehow I feel my team mates are feeling the same way.
