Who reads this thing anyways? Some people have told me that they read my "blog." It almost wants to make me write differently in it. Not that I don't want people to read it - that's what it's here for! haha! I've thought about putting titles to entries in english, but I'm not going to - it's just part of who I am. And too bad for you if you don't "get" my catchy titles (catchy in my opinion!).
So yesterday, I was talking with my salvadoran friend, Elsy, online. Seriously, we are living the exact same life! Looking at each of us from the outside we are totally different. We live in different countries, attend different styles of church, and have different daily activities. Her house is the size of my living room. There are four (I'm embarassed to say) cars parked in front of my home right now (one is the one that was given to me to sell for fund-raising for Mexico). There might be one car in front of her home, but it's her uncle's. So in those ways, we are totally different. But, we are the same age (oops, missed her birthday last week), and we both are going to be missionaries. We have both wanted to leave for the mission field since we met 5 years ago. We are both raising financial support. We are the same in those ways.
Yesterday, well the past week or so I guess, I've had this situation that I've been dealing with that no one will understand. Not that I've really given anyone else the chance to hear me and try to understand, I am just assuming that no one will understand so I never said anything to anyone. Great, huh? So when me and Elsy were talking, she brings up this situation that she's been dealing with, kind of to get my opinion, and it's the SAME exact thing that I've been going through! After she told me her story, I told her mine, and we laughed (I could see her on webcam) as we marveled at how similar our lives always seem to be. What would I ever do without Elsy? What would I ever do without cheap/free ways to communicate with my "montón" of friends that live out of the country? Another weird way that God provides, no?
