se va demasiado rápido el año
el año ha venido y ha ido
I'm torn between needing to get away for awhile to rest, and wanting everything to stay exactly how it is. We will all go our separate ways this summer, and we won't return the same. China, Florida, perhaps even Africa...these places will change us. Maybe it's a good thing. Maybe we all need to change. I know I do.
Faltaré esto
In the span of a lifetime one year does not seem like much. It's incredible to know how much can happen and how much one can learn in that small fraction of their life. Looking back on all the opportunities that I have had to grow, it's amazing knowing that it has all happened in the short time of 9 months. My travels to Pass Christian, MS and New Orleans, LA have taught me a tremendous amount about my ability to adapt and to trust and to push myself to limits I didn't know I could reach. My work with the homeless, however small, has fueled my desire to participate in global change. I have met hundreds of new people. Every set of eyes has told me a story, and every glance has taught me something new about myself. They will live forever in my heart.
El futuro es desconocido
There is something different about this summer. I can feel it. The build-up is mounting, and I hope this time away will find the waves breaking.
