my friend shannon sent me this message today as we discussed my staying overseas:

'there is an odd space on the day we choose to not return and to stay... 

but i pray in this space great hope and excitement about peace.'

and then in another message:

'...what happens when people that come over leave their ticket...

and every one of us talks about what happens when we really abandoned ourselves to the journey.

be in it today.'
