walking to the university here in st. lucia |
|
this morning with st. vincent on the horizon, baby goats baaah-ing their little hearts out. everything is so clear since we've moved here. of course it was clear back in amerika but painfully more so now. dh starts med school monday and we have 16 months to decide if we'll go back or not. i feel sane for the first time in my life. simple intelligent life that all makes sense. wish i could say the same for "home."
in conversations have been told how amerikans think they're so superior to everybody. i tell them they may think that but the reality is quite the opposite. our "culture" has sunk so low. most amerikans who don't see it already would be shocked to know how we're perceived.
anyway, take care of "home" you guys back in the states. wish i could say things look like they'll get better before worse there, but it sure doesn't look like it..............

it's good and strong :-) no breakfast - don't eat it. but most days it's fresh caught fish, "ground provisions" (i love that term - short and to the point), and a lot of fruit and salads. the locally grown spinach is amazing. the leaves are huge and thick and have a really rich taste, not like the stuff in the states. the people are generally very healthy and happy looking. how do you leave this?
so have you been here? or near here?
