Deuteronomio


Today I didn't have bounding amounts of energy like I did yesterday; nonetheless, I did do some trekking and stayed and visited other people. Yesterday I did the bulk of visiting people and today I spent more time with those who I spent lots of time with before.

It's a mean cycle. I go to visit someone and I don't want to leave to go see someone else because I'm so enjoying being with them. I reluctantly say goodbye, and head out the door to go see someone else and when I arrive there, I'm so happy to see that person(s) that I'm glad I left and I don't want to leave and go see anyone else.

I can't even count the amount of people that I've seen in the past two days. Some of them, it's been very sweet-- we're talking and spontaneously they hug me and say-- I'm so glad to see you! But it's been very cool. Everyone thinks that I was already in Japan, but obviously I wasn't. Well-- the kids who were with me the most know the plans and everything-- but many of the acquaintances that I've made have wondered where in the world I am... quite literally.

Anyhow, tonight I got back to the house around 11pm... It was a great evening and it ended with some garnachas and lots of laughter with my old landlords.

And now I'm talking with one of the girls that I used to work with about trusting in God and a whole bunch of verses and what they mean. It's a good time for reflection and it's cool for me to participate in this-- to see how much she is understanding now and yet challenging her to dig a little deeper.

Anyhow, tomorrow is kinda a different day-- I still have to be sure to put plans to be certain-- I don't know if that made sense... I think I am meaning to say that I still have to put my ideas in order to make set plans.

PS- Today's title comes for the Spanish name for the book of Deuteronomy... which took me about 3 years to master that word.... they told me I couldn't leave Mexico until I learned that word. I told them that they had to learn how to say it in English. Funny thing is-- they still can't say it and I somehow learned it (though speaking a little bit slower). Anywho. Goodnight.
