Over the past week and a half, I have been asked this question more times than I can even count. Upon hearing that I have been to Guatemala and back, everyone wants to know how it was.
 |
| Beautiful countryside |
I have no idea how to answer this question!
 |
| Typical farming plantation |
How do I sum up a week of God's faithfulness, provision and love?
 |
| Acatenango |
How could I possibly describe the beautiful sights, sounds and smells that surrounded me that week?
 |
| Anyone need a ride? |
How could I possibly explain that the same people that are considered the poorest of the poor, are also some of the friendliest, most generous, most loving people I have ever met?
 |
| Typical Guatemala working woman |
How could I possibly explain that the same country that makes my heart smile, also makes my heart sad?
 |
| Typical Guatemalan village |
How do I possibly describe the beautiful simplicity to people who have so much, yet constantly crave more?
 |
| Our "private exam room" at one of our clinics |
I don't think it's socially acceptable to answer a simple question with an hour-long response, so I have opted for the simple, "It was good."
 |
| Beautiful scenery |
 |
| Beautiful view of Antigua |
Still...I'm overwhelmed.
