This is a blog about my time studying abroad in Costa Rica. I believe that to understand the world you must first try and understand the people in it and where they come from. “The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” - St. Augustine

Pretty Amazing People
Y'all, God is so good. I am currently sitting in the Mobile Airport eating a pitiful breakfast and admiring some pretty amazing people. I met a man this morning that is going with 13 other people to Guatemala to provide medical care, food donations and to build 17 homes. Wow. I am also looking at a flock (I say flock because they are literally huddled together wandering around this postage stamp of an airport) of teenagers dressed in red t-shirts heading to Honduras for mission work as well. Man... I'm sure those kids would love to be at the beach or back at home asleep at this time of morning. However, despite their age differences they are doing these mission trips for the same reason... to spread the goodness of the Lord. So despite the fact my flight is delayed, the TV beside me is on the highest volume setting and I'm too short to do anything about it, and I really want some Waffle House right now (maybe some Starbucks as well), I am feeling pretty blessed.
