A Year Later

I have been back in the States for about a year now. Initially it was a difficult transition, as one might expect. Then life became...life again. As it should. But I have to say, I am continually amazed - and honored - by the responses I am still getting from people who stumble across the tales of my exploits and insights below. Thank you, all of you. Your words are so incredibly kind and so full of excitement...it is truly inspiring. I think that, perhaps, the reactions I've gotten from people who read my writings has left an impression on me that nearly equals that of my experiences overseas. So...Thank you. For reading, for caring, and for believing in me.
