India! Hot but not as hot as I thought it would be. Helped that it rained our first day here. Now where's the rest of the Monsoons? By the end of China I was really wondering if I could live in a place less Westernised, like Cambodia. I was getting comfortable with the weather, coffee shops, I walked in the evening without fear, and it just seemed more normal -- to my home standards. BUT once we hit India I just got hit by that exciting feeling again.
For some reason I just connect. My heart is happy and I want to know the people and culture. It's like I thrive off the complete opposite way of living. The opportunity to be different and make a difference. I feel as though I'll be able to make a bigger difference in these countries, like I'm needed more. I know China needs God too but for what I can give this seems a better fit--kind of.
Either way God has definitely blessed me with eyes to see beauty right away. I know others do too but speaking for myself, comparing how I pick up on things in places like Cambodia or India vs. Canada and Australia, it's definitely soemthing special God has done/given. It's definitely something I like and hopefully I can continue to remember it's a blessing, never take advantage of it.
The kids here are adorable!!!! I keep walking around and seeing myself back here with another photographer one day. Hopefully that chagnes soon so I can just see myself being here with God. Not that photography is wrong. I just hope it doesn't become a distraction and bring back feelings for my stolen camera.
