when there are no words...
mood:numb
I don't know how to find the words to describe how I feel today. All I know is that, suddenly I am questioning everything I've ever understood. I won't be going overseas - at least not for a few more years. That means I have to find a job in the US. But I do not want to teach in the US. I never wanted to teach in the US. I never understood why I was getting a teaching degree, but I always knew it was what God wanted me to do. Then God told me to go overseas, and I was so certain that was what He wanted me to do...
Now I'm in the United States. Not so much haunted by shadows of what has been as I am taunted by whispers of what is yet to come...

Yes... I'd have to say... I've known you since 3rd grade, and I always knew you'd be going overseas. You always seemed excited about helping those most in need and have always been mature and ready for it. I know how important it was to you... I know that you put working in the US on the back burner because you knew you weren't supposed to work here... I'm as shocked as you.... I thought you were called also... I don't know what to say.. I'm.. just.. sorry..
