How yaaaalllll doing. We have had 2 groups from the carolinas and suddenenly I am catching myself almost saying yall. This sucks. The projects have been going awesome. After some time away from the systern pit we will be back in tommorrow. Which means I will have a crew down there and thats it. I have selected all the most physically fit members to go in the blazing heat chizel rock. I guess I am the supervisor because the say the perfection in my abs and wanted that same bodywork down in the pit....I can iunderstand that. But o well. Heres to another day of losing 10 pounds of water weight. It will be fun and there is nothing but great things to look forward to. Im happy to be showing off this beautiful area to my lovely mother and girlfriend starting this thursday and going until monday. Maybe then ill actually have time to take some pics and get a nice tan in. haha
On a more serious note... I would like to say that one thing that I have learned over this summer is not to judge people by what they look like and diffreernt stereotypes. I would encourage for you guys to do the same. For weeks I have dealt with groups that are strong christian organizations that claim to be right minded yet they come down here and judge people instead of helping or aiding them when they can. People have great conversations with locals then joke with others that they cant believe they werent asked for money. These people are rich in their own way. Other countries are not as rich as ours but they dont sit and whine about it. They live the way they like. These people value time with others and friendship which are values that our statesman should hold more dear as well. It hurts to make good friends and then see them cast aside by people that dont know them or their story. Donovan has a great restaurant and loves to talk with visitors but people belive he only wants buisness not friendships and good conversation. James asks to come to worship and be helped as a struggling christian and the groups youth pastor remarks about not being hit up for a buck. Its a cruel world that we live in but quite honestly...why does it have to be on our parts.
Love
Matt
Interesting Fact: That was prolly the only serious thing I have wrote on this blog. But I mean every word.
In the words of Tebow...>God Bless
Matt,
ReplyDeleteYour mom told me about your blog when I went down to visit. I think I am up to speed on everything that is happening now with you. Sounds like quite an adventure/experience. Your Mom and I went kayaking when I was in Madison and she seems to know what to do. Protect her from the jellyfish though!
You wanted comments on Bryan Lenz---there are so many things I could say depending on if I want to embarrass him or not. I'll have to think about this awhile. :)
