Update from Nate
Dear World,
I have been somewhat reluctant to blog for quite some time now. At first it was because I had nothing constructively positive to say, and then because I felt this trip was such a personal experience. I’m not sure where I stand now. I am monumentally happier with myself after coming to India. It happened during our trek, where a feeling of empowerment swept over me as we ascended miles and miles of mountain terrain. Not only did I think I wasn’t capable of such a trip, but I thought I would loathe every minute of physical exercise. Looking back I would have never thought possible my current mindset of love for myself.
I feel my time here is taken differently than everybody else, since I come from a total collapse of college. But I can tell you that I have risen to such a happy place, I now feel anything is possible. Though I am somewhat reluctant to express this to the world, and admit I write this half under pressure from the leaders, I am nevertheless happy with my thoughts and freedom. Much love to my parents, who will definitely read this, and to my friends, who will hopefully not read this. I’m excited to soon continue on with my life.
