We have been busy busy busy this past week. I will eventually write about it all, but right now my brain is too tired. I´m going home on Sunday and I´m trying to be at peace about that, but I´m just not ready to leave. Time has gone by so quickly and there is so much more that I would like to do and experience. However, I miss my family so much and I´m so looking forward to seeing them. If I didn´t miss my family so much I´m pretty sure that I would stay. (I also especially miss cheddar cheese, salad, my dog, clean tap water, and a washer and dryer.)
I have already had to say good-bye to a few people. I really don´t like good-byes, especially since I don´t know when I´ll be back. But I know I will be back and probably sooner than I thought I would when I first got here.
Even though I don´t want to say good-bye and I´m not ready to leave, it´s probably a good thing that I´m going home. I have a lot to process and try to make sense of. I have been able to process some of what I have seen and experienced but El Salvador just keeps coming at me and I never seem to be able to process one experience completely before I need to start processing the next. So I´m looking forward to some time to reflect and figure out how to start putting into practice what I have learned. Right now I´m feeling overwhelmed with information and experiences, but hopefully time will help.
