it's funny how little things can grip your soul and brand itself in it forever.
sometimes it's just words.
sometimes it's catching the end of a song only to discover a musician that speaks to you
sometimes it's the scent of something
sometimes it's a picture
sometimes it's a journal that you don't even have to read but just hold in your hands
sometimes it's old pictures that trigger memories
sometimes it's the distance and the time that makes the heart grow fonder
sometimes it's reading the lyrics to a song
sometimes it's the affirmation to the faith you've kept even when nothing encouraged you to keep that faith.
I've learned many things during my time here in El Salvador. Mostly, i've learned about Love. I've learned why i love my country and my family.
you're beautiful, you're beautiful...you're beautiful, it's true
p.s. I'll never forget that you told me that you are glad that i am still here.
