Life rocks!

I wish I could express happiness as thoroughly as I can write about sadness or pain or contemplation. Oh well, anyway, I’m feeling pretty damn good right now! I just got back from Guatemala some four hours ago. It was an amazing and wonderful twelve weeks.

This photo is of my collection of rocks from the trip. I didn’t realize that I even had a collection, but there it is. The first one, the red and black one, is a rock from Volcan Pacaya, which we hiked. The big white one is a coral from when we went snorkeling in Cuba. The star was made by me from the cement mix that we used when we volunteered with Habitat for Humanity. The four small rocks are from Volcan Tajumulco, the tallest peak in Central America, and I picked them up because they’re colourful. (They’re prettier in person. They look like pieces of candy.) The group with the long white piece of coral and the small rocks and pieces of sea-glass is a collection of stuff that my friends picked when we were snorkeling in Cuba, and they gave them to me, kind of like when four-year-olds go mom-look-what-I-found. Haha. And the round one was found and given to me by the father of the family for whom we helped build a house, on the build site.

So, yeah. Life rocks. I’ll write more about this later. Maybe. ;-)
