As I'm sitting in my mom's living room at 1am the morning of my flight, surrounded in every imaginable thing I might need on this trip, I can't help but take a quick break from packing to say one thing to you all: Thank you.
I am overflowing with excitement and eagerness, and I'll admit I am more nervous than I can put into words, but more than anything I feel so grateful to have the opportunity to do something like this. The only reason that this is possible is because of all of the tremendous support from my wonderful group of friends and family. You all have no idea how much this means to me.
As I head off to bed, I am thinking of something my CCS program manager said to me yesterday. She simply stated, "It's hard to explain, but when you go to Africa it will take a piece of your heart .... and you'll never get it back."
I'll keep you posted.
