God, I miss faces like these.
I've only been home a week and a half and thinking about Nicaragua makes me want to burst into tears. I stumbled upon a friend's facebook that is having a benefit concert for house of hope in Nicaragua. It made me weak-hearted and yet so happy. Joyful, really- to know that there are other people who have found a heart for this place. I can't contain it. I'm just so drawn to that place. Everything about it. The way it smells. The hugs. The sounds.
And yet I'm home. Stuck back in doing homework. Going to a job I don't really enjoy.
And then I remember why I love Nicaragua so much. Everyone I met did all their work with joy. They did it because they were blessed to be alive. That is a note I need to make in my own life and start to work on. Starting now. I expect all of you to hold me to it as well.
