Why is it so hard to say goodbye? It's never been very hard for me to pick up and GO- to college, graduate school, Spain, etc. But this time, it seems a little harder. Maybe it's because I know I will miss many of the basic comforts of life we take for granted in the United States. Maybe it's because I will miss eating Mexican food at least 5 times a week. OR maybe it means that I really care about the PEOPLE and things that I am leaving behind for the next year! I will miss all of my friends and family immensely. But, I know that going back to Uganda as a missionary teacher is something God has been preparing me to do for a long time. There is some comfort in knowing that I am following His will in my life, and not my own. There has been a number of times when I have wondered, "What am I DOING going to LIVE in Africa?!" But there is a calming whisper reminding me, "Just wait. You will see what I have planned for you!" I'm certainly excited and anxious to see...
