delicate balance

we had a retreat last weekend w/ all the ESI czech-ers. lots of talk about future plans for people. decision time is upon us... future is a weird concept. somedays i am overly concerned and anxious about what is to come. somedays i could careless. but i know this - i still love using my czech kc - i still love getting yelled at in billa and breaking into a sweat bc of it. i still love our flat w/ a balcony that makes you want to pray for this city. i still love laughing w/ my team. i still love my friends at home and am glad i haven't lost people this year in the distance. i don't mind hang-drying my clothes bc it makes our living room smell like a cloud of fabric softener. layer upon layer upon layer of clothes is funny and stupid annoying. i love the simplicity roots that i am planting in my soul as a result of my life here. i love public transportation. i am very grateful to be living here. it is an actual dream come true. nazdravi to 5 and a half more months.
