Monday, January 22, 2007

well after 4 days in the city(guatemala that is)staying with liz and fabian(aka the butler from Mr. Deeds), getting in a wreck(i was not driving)(and accidentaly yelling choice word or two, then having to tell my friends what those words meant because they insisted) we are in antigua, and it is so much better than i thought....and have already met some pretty amazing people....its almost intimidating(like my friend Tim who is almost fluent in spanish, obviously english, and also has citizenship in Israel and speaks perfect hebrew.....i know...we all suck).....But i am ready to get a week or two of spanish under my belt so i can start helping at La Limonda(a ghetto in the city.....working with some of the kids with sports and art and such....and i mean such).....Its very interesting though....what miles between you and what you know will do to you.....I am realizing that i like the south, i like being out west....i like brooklyn.....So although i love it here.......anyways it is funny.....Although i do love the people, food, COFFEE, and incoherent spanish, I think Jesus let me think that i was escaping to an effortless untopia for the aspiring vagabond.....but in reality i think for the first time in my life, i am completely out of my comfort zone....i actalluy HAVE to grow to survive....I must have started to turn in His stomach, gone from a steady boil to room temp....pero esta bien....Agarre el dia......oh y espero verle pronto

Soon Enough

So i guess this is where i'll tell you(anyone that just so happened to stumble upon this, and the faithfuls who might actually care) how learning spanish (in antigua guatemala) and what Jesus may want to do with me is going. Dont know when I'll come back.....but i think i will...AS long as i keep a healthy distance from anything Che wrote....If you wanted to pray....pray that i get better at receiving grace, then maybe i'll start giving it more. Its a funny thing, thinking that just maybe, you can make a difference......However small or trivial it may seem.....I leave wed. With the hope of learning, drinking coffee, and following Jesus who is definitely in me, so i guess i'm going to follow my heart, so i guess i'm going to find me and Jesus all in one discovery....A tall order i know. cross your fingers
Le echo de menos y espero verle pronto,
