walking the walk

Got back from Haiti this week, still processing a lot of what I saw there and how it made me feel about myself and how I live here. I won't say I'm depressed, but I do feel very subdued about what I experienced. It was mentally challenging and emotionally rough. I had some really bright points though. Among these was something very strange, very foreign to me, but I think, through a series of unrelated circumstances that a lot of stuff coalesced around my spiritual life. I'm not going to get into it much, I'm still feeling around in the dark, but I haven't felt this..."whole" in a while. That being said, I'm on a long path here.

I'm very much looking forward to going back to Haiti in October. The need for everything there is so enormous, and the more people on the ground the better. Seriously, go to operation medishare's website and apply.

Besides that, I've been on the bike a little since I got home. I've been in the water a lot, with a few races coming up, I'm pretty pumped about the early paddling season. Can't wait to see how I do. I know it will be fun regardless. Get to see jeff and stephanie Huhn down here! sweet.
