From Snow to Sun

The day of departure has finally arrived. I woke up this morning to find snow on the ground, after several weeks of spring like weather. Now I'm not quite sure how to dress. I am sobered by this journey, this opportunity. I know what I see will break my heart. The donations keep coming, even though my suitcase is past full. I hope to pack the remaining items with my traveling companions. There is still so much to do today. I try not to think about the immenseness of the task, I just focus on one thing at a time. I try to remain open, to whatever the experience holds.
