Friends...

It’s interesting living in this place. It’s like I need to learn so many unwritten laws all over again. Especially now that I'm driving in a foreign country with interesting police officers!!

Each day I learn new things that are either culturally different or just new. I am thankful that I can do that.

It is with a very grateful heart that I can say I have friends in this place. People who have my back, when things are easy and when things don’t go to plan. People who are praying for me, genuinely loving me and taking care of me. People who look at me and treat me with such pure joy, despite their own circumstances. I am one very blessed woman. And I hope I can be that for others too...a genuine friend, showing love in all circumstances.

Several times lately people have been giving me gifts- unexpected tokens of love. One orphanage the other day gave me a whole bag of carrots and fresh sukumawiki. Another orphanage sent me home with 20 eggs. People with not much, sharing what they have with me. How special!

And flowers- two different people in the past 3 days have given me roses out of love. It’s things like this that make me realise how lucky and blessed I am.



Even when other things happen that aren’t so nice, I can be thankful for moments like these...!

x Waithera!
