Two years...
As this blog approaches its second birthday--Nov. 14--it seems like a good time to reflect...
My first post ever held this comment that referred to my pending trip to Guatemala:
I can't help but wonder how this experience will change my thinking? I highly doubt that it will change the core of who I am but I am almost certain that it will change some of the ways I think about and approach the world. But how? I guess that is why I'm going... to find out.
It's true. The core of who I am has not changed, but my thinking has.
I have an enriched understanding of the diversity of people in places in this world. I have a deep love for the Latin culture and Spanish language. I have a fearlessness that allows me to wade through challenges. And I have an insatiable desire (some may call it an addiction) to know the world... to taste the innumerable spices, to hear the rhythm of languages, to breath in deeply rich colors, and to touch the textures of sandy beaches, ancient buildings and soft, wrinkled hands.
I have four places to call home... Colorado, Guatemala, Argentina and Alaska.
I have dear friends who come from all walks of life and a great many countries.
I have a clear sense for how I want to lead this life laid out before me...
Two years of adventures, many more to come!
