The Beginning

(this is from yesterday!):

Well. I’m really not sure where to start.
I’m sitting in Pearson Airport in Toronto waiting to board my flight to Atlanta.... and then to Quito, Ecuador!

I’ve been saying that the reality of this trip has been hitting me over the past few weeks, but this morning I realized how untrue that was – it didn’t hit me until this morning: I am going to be going to sleep in Quito tonight! This is actually happening! I had a few moments of initial terror and wondering what on earth I was doing, but Perfect Love casts out all fear and my burden to go back is stronger than any feelings of hesitancy.

Anyways, my plane is about to board, so... here I go!
