sorry it's been awhile..
best lunch ever.. scrambled chocolate banana pancakes with honey, jam, cinamon, pears, and dates. life is sweet:) These are two AWESOME girls that I love hanging out with(and play bananagrams with them). The first picture is a girl named Rachel Aronson who's also coming to Rwanda and the second is Leina who's really into meditation and art. They are coming with me this weekend hiking and camping in Yehudia (where I went before) except this time there are like 10 people for sure going. Tomorrow were going to Haifa to see the famous gardens, the Arab shook market, and go on some hike. I can't wait! I bought a sketchbook and watercolors and have been drawing a TON because we have so much free time. Our classes and volunteer finish at 1.00 so we have the rest of the day free.
You make a lot of points that seem to make the program sound disappointing. You really are in a situation that you are making the best of it though. Keep doing what you are doing, and all will be revealed to you in due course. You cannot understand all the reasons why or where the program goes, and you don't have total control. some of the things you are required to do probably don't make sense, but as Dad said on the phone - it's life, it what happens in jobs, business and relationships. Sometimes it doesn't make sense, but you just have to bite your tongue and go along with it. I do remember that the program director said that these months you are in right now, are the hardest. The novelty is gone, and you have to settle into a routine that might not be to your liking at this point. It will meander and change - like a river over some hard parts, and then some moments of awe. Take them all in as they are all teaching and growing moments in your life.
