Sam Kennedy mentioned originally, when we first discussed a life of serving, that he was excited about the timing of our trip. He expressed his joy in that the trip ended right at the beginning of our summer vacation. His thought was all the more time off of school that I can spend serving. I didn't understand at first we he was happy that we had all this free time. Jonah had just finished stating that we spend so much time doing nothing, and I began feeling overwhelmed with the amount of summer still left that would most likely fall to nothing. I knew I'd end up wasting it. I wanted to have school occupy a lot of my time so I'd be more motivated to keep busy or something, but here we are with two more months left of break.
Sam's thought did click eventually, and I nodded my head silently in anticipation. I'd stay determined to not waste time. I could find some way to serve.
But here I am at La Quinta, where for the past 3 days I've been simply relaxing in bed or at the pool. How exciting. How worthwhile. How determined.
