The people that mean the most to you are often the ones you don't even realize mean anything until they leave. Last night a few people I live with and myself attended a going away party for my friend Jimmy. It was such an awakening to how blessed I am and how many delightful people I have in my life. We were all hanging out and then they boys and Robin went in to have a little jam session. It was such a delightful time. It was one of those oh so good moments you don't want to end; kind of like eating ice cream on a hot summer day under the shade of a weeping willow by the creek. Yea, it was that good.
My hope is that we can learn to enjoy what we have now, not only when we look back on it. Contentment is key and if we forget what we have, we'll forever feel as though we lack.
Here are a few stills from the filming I did just getting familiar with the camera for Sudan. Please pray for us even more, we found out there have been more killings just recently by the LRA (Lord's Resistance Army - the terrorist group using child soldiers) very close to where we are staying. When I get the audio I will try to edit a short piece from their wonderful jam sess.
