opening my mind....
I am having such a good learning experience this time. I have been learning about the situations in school, and now know more about the economic hardships and see deeper into the picture than before. I love trying to imagine my life in the shoes of the people I see, as I see a man pulling a huge cart up a hill on the side of the highway, full of boxes, doing work that, in the worse case scenario, a donkey would be doing...then I imagine being the lady that lives in a one room concrete house in a favela, hanging her clothes on a line outside, wondering what she has inside...and knowing that she still has good days, and remembering the night I was mad at work because I only made $75.....which is what she makes in a month. It makes me really appreciate what I have and know that my life is so good...it is so good that I should not let little bull shit ruin my day because I have it so good.... :)
