Today was filled to the brim with blessings.
Woke up and prepared for church. Left for church, navigated the subway through my first line transfer. Found the next transfer led to an "interrupted" line. BLESSING: found a friend, don't even know her name, who got diverted as well, heading the same way. Figured out the right bus and stop together. BLESSING: Arrived at the church. BLESSING: Had friends with whom I could sit. Sang and worshipped in Spanish. BLESSING: Marycela invited me to lunch with a family of friends in a villa nearby. Had my first experience in a villa (like Barrio Egipto in Bogota, for those of you who know it). BLESSING: Had a shopping buddy for my first grocery shopping trip. BLESSING: Real food for dinner. BLESSING: Called Mom. BLESSING: Played guitar. BLESSING: Chatted with friends back home.
BLESSING: Sleep.
May there be many more, even in the tough times.
