"I have always believed that in the lives of individuals, just as in society at large, the profoundest changes take place within a very reduced time frame. When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change; at such a moment, there is no point in pretending that nothing has happened or in saying that we are not yet ready.
The challenge will not wait. Life does not look back. A week is more than enough time for us to decide whether or not to accept our destiny."
-Paulo Coehlo
I can't help but think that this quote is quite fitting for my life as of late. In the past 2 weeks I have experienced some major life changes. I won't go into details over the net, but I can say that I haven't had such a crazy past couple of weeks in a long time!
I just arrived in Guatemala City last night. I will be teaching English here for the next 6 months at least. I interviewed for the job two Fridays ago, found out I got the job on the following Tuesday, which gave me a week to get my act together and get on a plane. The time has gone by so quickly. I'm so thankful that I have been blessed with friends that are so good to me!
So yeah, that's where I'm at for now. I will fill everyone in as I know more. I am headed to school this afternoon to meet everyone and start training. I start teaching on Monday. I will be moved into my own place on Sunday.
I'm not really sure what to expect, so I'm trying not to expect anything. No matter what happens, I'm sure it will be an adventure!
