the dance of expectancy.

just two days folks. until the whirlwind tour of america begins...

tonight sarah kristin and i planned for the next six months, dreaming and working on what we have in mind for ourselves and our friends here...its exciting to dream far beyond into things we'll never see for ourselves.
and its exciting to plan for my team coming in august and envision their time here, plan for their trips, work out their daily process, you know be the proverbial mother hen...
in the next six months so much will happen, certainly most of it we'll not even expect until it is upon us, as things usually move around here. but thats half the fun of it all i suppose. the dance of expectancy and faith.
but with hopes of moving into a new house, where a possible half way home for the ladies of sonagachi will develop, as well as a headquarters for a new sari bari in sonagachi, a new team arriving in august for four months, and trips to nepal and perhaps pakistan/afghanistan on the horizon, as well as training for a marathon i'm running with sarah, in bombay, i feel as though i'm going to the states in perfect timing, but will be ready to jump back in when its time.
although i'm ready for some lovin back home, i still look around and thrill at the realization that i get to live this life, that i get a chance to make my home in kolkata india, among some of the most beautiful women alive, in this crazy pulsing city...in my humble opinion.

also, a side note, my friend and former servant team member, kyle scott has written some amazing songs about his time here in kolkata and i'd like to share his blog for all of your benefits...his prophetic voice offers life to the folks he met here in kolkata. you should check it out.
