60 seconds a day...
Monday, February 18, 2013 at 8:40PM I don't know why exactly, but it has been really hard to blog lately.
Maybe it's because there a fewer truly "new" experiences going into our second year here. More likely it is due to an overwhelming feeling of inadequacy I have lately when it comes to putting life, work, and continuing cultural acquisition into words.
Both Ted & I have talked about having SO MUCH on our minds, SO MUCH on our hearts & SO MUCH going on around us that brings up more questions than answers. We aren't overly concerned with that fact, it's just the way it is right now. It is probably good to be in a place where we finally have better questions to ask. I never want to presume to know the "answer". It's an intentional and constant battle to fight that notion & to lay it aside for an open and teachable spirit.
I will try to find my words & write more about that in the near future, as we process things more fully. In the meantime, we've decided to try something simple and fun to help share our daily life with those that may care...a daily video blog.
Sometimes, I find myself saying, if they only knew what we're doing right now, or I wish they could see this moment or that one. So we are going to try to be more faithful in keeping our camera around & capturing 60 seconds a day in order to give you just a small way to join us here.
Hopefully, over time, it will give you an idea of everyday life in Haiti too.
