I'm sad today because tomorrow I leave for the US. My month here in Guatemala has been a happy one because I've met many kind people who have great ideas. I like Guatemala and the people, and I've enjoyed learning about another culture, that of the Maya. The work that many people are doing here is very important, so that makes me happy because they have good ideas and good hearts. I'm happy to have been here among the Guatemalan people and with Terry, and I hope to come back again a year from now.
