The frontline of Poverty.

To me, life is easy. To others, not so much. Like my "about me" section says to the left of this page, I went to Haiti this past summer and finally realized that what I am so used to, others are dying for. Litterally, dying for. This picture to the right is me in Haiti with my little girls I took care of for 10 days in July. I went from July 5th through the 15th. It's an experience that I would never take back. 

Comming home, I was most frequently asked the same question: "What do you think now about the US?" and my answer was the same. "Well, to be honest with you, I am angry, and I feel rather selfish." But putting more thought into the question, I thought to myself... "God has given me all of these amazing things in my life.. why should I ever feel angry about what God has provided me with?".. well, the answer to that was that no, I shouldn't ne angry. So I started answering it this way: "Well, I'm more appreciative. Not only do I appreciate what God has given me in my life, But now I appreciate the life that the less fortunate go through every day."

..and that appreciation will be with me for the rest of my life.

The group that I went with last year has decided not to go on a Mission this summer, so I am currently looking for a group to travel with. AIM(Adventures in Missions) called me yesterday about going to Kenya for a month this summer, but it's close to $4,000. I'm not sure what to do, but what I am sure of, is that if I am meant to go, God will let it happen.
