one life to give
i am back.
yes, i am in one piece.
........
erm.. well, not exactly.. i think i left parts of my heart back in cambodia. it was my first trip to cambodia and it will not be my last. :)
feeling kinda disorientated. been moving around too much. i have not been in the same place for more then 10 days for the last month or so and this will continue until sem starts in mid june. hectic? yes. i guess so. but at least i am not wasting my time. :) as of now, i find that i have too much time. i'm feeling restless.
i miss everyone. now i can sleep in. i dont have breakfast waiting for me. there are no kids waiting to be hugged. no mercedes vans waiting outside the door. no more 'chun meriat su' or 'oh kun' or 'Preah Ong'. no more rushing for night services. no more debriefing late at night. no more delicious ice blended fruit juices and bread. no more cracking my brain trying to find new ways to teach communications class. and i have a bed to myself. my clothes dont have to be hand-washed and hanged all around the room. i don't worry about converting usd back to riggit before buying stuff. i don't get kids following me around begging for money. i also don't get kids walking around totally naked. traffic rules are kept here. motorcycles don't swarm the streets. there are hills here, many hills.. the fields are green and the air is clean.....
a rainbow in my heart.
i really felt there was so much more that i could have given. it wasn't enough. i wasn't fully focused all the time.. but i thank God for the priviledge to pray, for the opportunity to share and for the testimonies of love.
i only have this life to give. i only have this message to share.
so there.
p.s. if you want to read more about the trip. as in details, try visiting - pr david's, weeliem's, michelle's, rachel's, ee chia's, leona's, ken's, niger's, lilian's, alvink's.. sorry if i left out anyone.. and please note, they may not have updated too! :)
