It's about 1:30am when I start to head home from work and suddenly I feel a new appreciation for the people at the store around the holidays who aren't as cheerful as I might expect. It will only get worse, I know. I feel like an outsider watching my culture in its frenzy. I don't have much reason to participate in the shopping this year, but I am surrounded by it everyday at work.
When I got home I finished a psych paper to unwind and fretted about Mondays chem exam. Part of my paper was on my experience living with a family in the slums. Suddenly it really hit me just what an amazing adventure God gave me in the Philippines. I hope there are many more to come!
