From Brahma to Buddha, Fall 2006

And as Andrew flies East, Cassia flies south... landing on her brand new green shoes (I know, can you believe it? My mom almost cried) in the beautiful land of Argentina.
Transitory. A good word to describe our years. Our lives. I hope to be transitory soon because I am hopelessly lost right now, and my Spanish skills are just rusty enough to make me timid about asking for directions. Just ask, Cassie! But my ipod is not frozen and my shoes are comfortable, and it has cooled down enough today to make walking a pleasure. I hope that my sense of direction can function even in another language.
Who knows how I will feel? Who knows how it will be? I´m still pretty terrified of this new adventure, but my little homestay sister loves Jennifer Lopez. She has the thickest, most beautiful accent, and doesn´t seem to care that I can only pick up every other word.

The next Brahma to Buddha program is meeting in a few days in Lifebridge, and that makes me wistful and somewhat sad. Good luck to all of you (and to Emma, who has to brave that gorgeous retreat without our faces there)!

I miss you guys.
