2 weeks.
It's amazing what such a short amount of time has done for me spiritually but also how deeply I have connected with this place. Indian culture is VERY different but I have fallen in love with the deep respect that people hold for each other and the level of appreciation that they give for even the smallest things. Especially through tear-filled conversations last night at our sharing time (the mingle of honor,) I realized how unprepared I am to leave. I have felt so valued by these people and, as I expressed my love for them, I saw that in a short time some of these men have become closer to me than people I have interacted with for years.
I know it's time to go back and that God's timing is better than my own, but this still isn't going to be easy. So so grateful to have had this experience and glad that next year's camp is just 50 weeks away.
