Preparations? What are those?

Jerry asked me tonight if I was nervous about heading out heading out to Ecuador so soon. As it turns out, I don’t even know how to describe what I am feeling right now. Having been to Ecuador twice before, and knowing a ton of the people I’ll be working with at Youth World, it just feels like I’m taking a short ride to spend some time doing something I love with people I love. I’m not sure when it will really sink in, or if I’ll just keep thinking that this is a normal part of my life (because at this point, it is a pretty normal part of my life).

Maybe it’s just because I’m a procrastinator, or maybe it’s because of that same lack of appreciation for embarking on a totally different chapter of life, but in some ways I don’t feel remotely prepared. For instance my suitcase. Still empty and in the closet of the guest room. And I’m leaving the day after tomorrow. Stay tuned.
