whats really in your head?
hey hey-
its been sunny here and boy does it change things! ive been working on my training assignments. im going to training on wednesday and will be back on sunday. if the weather stays like this belgium might not be so bad ;)
great news...noora, my finish friend said that she would do the weekend retreat with me. that means im going. i was debating on whether or not to go...since im old. but she is psyched and really wants to go. that confirms that i should go! she came to ski camp and loved it. i hope that she really soaks up what she has been hearing.
on another note, benoit, a guy that goes to the church in bierges hung himself on Friday. i cant believe it. its so freaky. i know ive said this several times, but ive NEVER heard of so much suicide until i came here. his wife found him in their bedroom. LUCKILY their 10 year old son was at their grandparents house!
PRAY FOR BELGIUM!!!! miss the States and everyone, but loving the weather here!
bisous- jessica
