Awesome trip. Besides the fact that it was constantly 115 degrees plus. I must have lost like 12 lbs of water weight. I've been on mission trips before but I think I learned a lot more on this trip than my others. Obviously wasn't the MAIN reason but one of my reasons for going on this trip was to grow as a person. One of my main goals in life is to never stop growing and becoming a better human being. It shouldn't take a mission trip for me to realize how fortunate I am, but I often forget. There are really people that live in mud houses. Its not some urban legend. These people literally have close to nothing, and here I am screaming, tweeting, facebooking FML because my coke is diet and not regular. Remember no matter how bad you think your life is, some one has it ATLEAST...500x worse than you.
sidenote: I am looking for a non- profit organization that I can donate a bunch of shoes and clothes to. I don't want to just dump it off at the Salvation Army or Good Will or something like that. I'm looking for a non-profit that I can create a relationship with and continue donating and working with. Somewhere I will actually make a difference. If you guys know of any holla at me and I'll look into it! LET ME KNOW! LET ME KNOW! THANKS!
