That's a Woody Guthrie song, for those that didn't know...
I'm off today. My plane leaves at 4:55pm. I will arrive in Bangkok tomorrow night around 11:30. (What will be 12:30pm, their time...)
My stomache is a bit upset this morning. I guess that's to be expected. But I had a nice send-off. I got to pray with Harry, Chuck, and my dad and then Harry gave me a Message Bible that he really likes. I'm liking it too. Last night I brought Joel to the Menczers for dinner and then we stayed for their study, so I got to see some people, like my grandma, for the last time in a while...
Saying good-bye is awkward; sometimes I wonder if it would be better if I just split outta sight without hugging anyone. Maybe if no one knew I was leaving it would be easier... I guess that wouldn't be right. It's good to know that people will be thinking about me and praying for me.
Last night, as I usually feel after Dave's teaching, my head was filled with good thoughts and Joel and I felt at peace about the situation. I was pretty happy about that. Nancy Kammer (director friend)pointed out that that the fact that we can trust each other while we're gone is a really big and important thing. So that was encouraging...
I'm sorry if these thoughts aren't reading well. I'm having trouble typing, i feel so nauseous. I hope it goes away soon...
While I'm gone, read about my adventures at NoraInBangkok.blogspot.com
Much love to my homies.
