soon there will be photos... but first:

We are back. Back to what, that is the question. When you put so much energy into one month it is near impossible not to evaluate your life as a whole afterwards. One thing that I walked away from South Africa with is a sense of urgency towards happiness. During my trip we spent a lot of time with a man who is very passionate about his job. I found this really inspiring as I am not passionate about any of mine. In fact I rather dislike working. It is an interesting place to be, at this stage of the game. I am evaluating my job situation and my husbands job situation and we both come very short of any sort of future security. It is hard to think of what to do in the long run because if I were to retrain in a new avenue I would not only be adding to my substantial debt but I would find myself either having a child mid-schooling or waiting until the later part of my 30’s to do so. My back doesn’t think that is the best idea. I find that I am stuck in this way of evaluating my life at the moment. It means many core things are going to change sooner rather than later.
