I am so tired right now.
I don't really feel like writing.
I will though in the spirit of fulfilling my commitment to doing this every Sunday...
I went to Seattle with my mom today to a peace corps meeting. I was hoping to be either be encouraged or discouraged about joining. I am pleased to say that I was encouraged. I got to hear lots of stories from people who had done this and all of them say it was hard and so worth it. There was a lady there who went in in her 50's as a single woman. It was good to hear a perspective close to my own. I also was pleased to hear that stuck in a grass hut in Africa is not the only option.
Tonight I feel completely incapable of doing anything about what I need to do and feel like I am on the verge of not caring what happens.
I feel overwhelmed and free.
I'm going to sleep now.

That is a beautiful picture...I want to visit that place! I am thrilled that you are looking into the peace corps! Sounds like fun! I have read a bit of the blog, and I see now why Josh said we were a lot alike! I can't wait to talk to you about life, dreams and fears- katy
