"You don't have to know a lot of things for your life to make a lasting difference in the world. But you do have to know the few great things that matter, and then be willing to live for them and die for them."

im back from argentina

i was on tv
in the papers
mugged
proposed to
learned the argentine way to mosh
threw up a lot
went to the circus
went to a futbol game
played futbol with a bunch of kids (was nicknamed cinderella because my shoes kept flying off)
got to know the police station pretty well
cried/laughed/sang/x1000
taught an art clinic
performed skits at about 15 schools
melted at an orphanage
helped paint a huge mural for the town of zarate
got shoved into a subway in Buenos Aires and almost suffocated
talked in front of 300 people about true hope at a music festival
and had the trip of my life.

hands down God is good and the friends i have made in Argentina are gifts from above.
all the "bad" things that happened can not even a little compare to the good.

I will not go where the path may lead; but I will go where there is no path; and I will leave a trail..."

i keep reminding myself that its hard changing directions after gaining such great momentum down a path your already headed down. This trip has helped me gain momentum down the path I know I want. I am intentional about seeking what is right. its been a long time since I have felt this joy so consistently.
