So, I know I said I was back on the blog-train last month, but I got off I guess. I´m back on though? Time flies by so quickly. It feels like I blinked my eyes and it was a month since I last posted something. Actually it´s been like I blink my eyes and six major events have happened, four retreat groups have been here, and my personal perspective has melted twice and formed new solid states. I´m trying to keep it liquid though or at least flexible. I´m getting there.
December saw Christmas and New Years passing:
Christmas eve we went to our neighbor Pastora´s house for dinner after mass.
Christmas day we went to Damien House asnd visited the patients living with Hansen´s disease.
Afterward we went to the house of the director of Damien House, Sister Annie, for a big
Itanlian dinner.
New Year´s eve we built a 7 foot tall wood and paper michae muñeca and stuffed it with fire
crackers and burned it down (don´t worry its a cultural tradition. We´re not pyros). Then
we went dancing at a neighbors til early into the morning.
January:
George Washington University (our first non-religous retreat) and Boston College have come
through and have been really amazing. It was a pleasure to get to know them.
Iona comes tonight and Manhattan College comes Sunday.
I´ll end it here cause I need to run. I´ll try and give a more analytical or reflective post soon. till then.
