from the last few days in Canada and forward, you can join me in my thoughts and actions as I learn how to live in a country that I had not even known the exact location until Ryan was there a few years ago. Some days I have rants and other days I have adventures, but every day is a learning experience that I embrace and thank God I was given the opportunity to know and to be. I might even upload a picture of me in this place I now call home – for now.
WILD LIFE IN MY NEW RAINFOREST

Thank You again, Nelson Mandela
Nelson Mandela - probably the greatest peacemaker this world has known has continued his peace building even after he passed away. A stadium in South Africa holding leaders from around the world gathered this week to pay homage to a great man. With Barack Obama addressing those gathered, it was also noted that he and Raul Castro shook hands. The world observed something that could only have been caused by the reason they were all assembled that day, and again; Nelson Mandela was that reason. Let's hope that his presence in the past will continue to heal and reconcile other conflicts worldwide. To look at that greeting as anything other than peace building is a pathetic way of looking at the world and relations in the world. It is time for peace.
