I'm Going Home 7-11-08


I can feel the butterflies in my stomach. My heart beats so fast. I feel cold.

After 1 year, 1 month and 14 days working in Cambodia I can finally go home for a vacation. Today is my big day. The past 1 year, 1 month and 14 days being away from my family was a great learning experience. I had never been away from them this long. At my age, it was still painful to be away from them. Homesickness almost made me insane. The pressure at work was also a major reason that I almost give up this job. But as God sent his angels, I was very fortunate to be surrounded by matured and caring people. My colleagues at work are my family. They kept on boosting my spirit. They kept on reminding me to be thankful of what I have. They help me to gained more confidence for me to able to perform my job. For the past 1 year, 1 month and 14 days, they were the shoulders I can lean on, they are the people who made me laugh, they were my teachers and and the best of all they were my family.

Thank you God for letting me experience this life. Thank you for letting me realize how fortunate I am. I will continue to pray for your blessing that I will be able to return to you all you have given me. Please Lord bless me with wisdom that I will fairly judge the reality of life. Please bless me with patience that I will live harmoniously with my neighbor. Please Lord bless me with faith that I will continue to live accordingly to your will and purpose.
