Saturday, June 28, 2003 La Fin du Voyage Well, I've got 12 minutes to discuss the end of my time in Paris... yikes, I can't do it. The last month and a half have been incredible; I've been thought so many lessons and seen God work in so many ways, not to mention that I now have great friends from our team all over the country and some in France, Canada, and Switzerland. But it's not really the end of my time in Paris--I think I'm going to be back next May for around a year. Thus I'm going to have to do some major studying on my own in the next year: philosophy, history, art history, and French. Wouldn't it be great if when I came back my French would start out strong to begin with? Being able to speak another language opens up a new realm of people you can form relationships with. For all I love France, people are essentially the same everywhere; we dream the same dreams, fight the same fears--and even though every once in a while I still stop myself and think, "I'm right next to [insert your favorite Parisian monument here]!" when it all comes down to it, Paris for all its beauty is the same as anywhere else: a place filled with people who need to love and be loved. I'll be back in Michigan on Sunday night. ^ Top | 8:03 AM | | |
