I Am SOOOO Thankful in my up side down world
Today my world is a little up side down... 3:00 AM feels like 10:00 AM - I guess it's that way because it is... 10:00 AM Kenyan time. But last night at 11:00 PM it felt like it was 6:00 AM - I guess because it was ... 6:00 AM Kenyan time.
My world is upside down - and will be for a few days. Jet lag is the way of life for a few days... and then the world will right side itself.
Did I ever tell you that Canada is beautiful? It is also clean and bright and full of clean air. It is safe and quiet in its streets. There are no bars on our windows generally. We do lock doors but for the most part we are safe. When you get in the car to travel somewhere, you don't lock your car doors for fear of being "car jacked" at an intersection. When you drive by a policeman he will not be carrying a loaded and open automatic riffle that could blow your head off when he sneezes. Did I ever tell you Canada is beautiful and free and safe and clean and my country!!!?
Today I want to tell you that - if I haven't told you that already.
I want say how much I appreciate my own bed as well. I didn't stay in it last night very long - but is my bed.... and I love it!!!
I am thinking a lot about Nairobi today. Right now it is 11:45 AM and my new friends are beginning their journey through busy streets, grab some food for lunch and then begin to settle into a rainy day, or clear sky day... but will struggle with some of the issues that we do not struggle with. I pray for them today.
I am sorting through stuff from our suitcases... and in our minds.
Over the next few days I will post a few more Africa Journal Postings. I just have to get it out of me... if that ever happens. Some of the postings are too long and some times case sensitive - so they may not get posted. Others are a little lighter and full of fun... they'll come soon.
I have to run... I have lots of typing to get done. Have a great day!

I'm glad for your appreciation of our beautiful country, it helps give me a new and grateful heart for it and all we have. I should never ever take it for granted. I'll be praying for your upside down world to right itself quickly.
