I've been here so long I think that its time to move
The winter's so cold summer's over too soon
let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow
I've got some friends some that I hardly know
But we've had some times I wouldn't trade for the world
We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go
We live on front porches and swing life away
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor I'll slave 'til the end
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand
-Swing Life Away by Rise Against
I couldn't help it...I absolutely love this song and I had to put the lyrics on here. Everyone who reads this must download it, listen to it, and tell me what you think about it. For me, it has so much to do with what our whole team has been going through here...and honestly...I love it here guys. It can't compare to all of you at home, but this is a very different situation. I love all of the people I'm here with. There are occasional problems of course...but I'm learning from these people and they're hopefully learning from me. You know what's crazy?? I'm talking...so much! I'm opening up to people...I'm learning to love people I didn't think I'd ever like. Honestly...Belize is incredible. Just check out my photos from facebook which I'm finally adding because I have a NEW LAPTOP finally! It's so pretty : )
God doesn't seem as distant here for me...in fact He's very near : )
