In Closing

Clearly I'm not much of a blogger. But for anyone who happens to stop by here, I'll post this one closing entry. Yesterday I left Cambodia for good. I cried on Monday night, and off and on yesterday morning until I arrived in Bangkok. I never expected it to be that difficult. As I reintegrate into life in the US, I think the achievements of the past year will solidify in my mind. I left wanting to change the country and was afraid that I would leaving without accomplishing that goal. In a sense I did. It really wasn't until we arrived at the airport and I saw the impact my leaving would have on the family I now call my own that I really understood the depth of my work in Cambodia. I think the days, weeks, months, and even years to come will clarify it even more.
