Contrasts

Today was an amazing day of swimming, ziplining, and enoing under the palm trees. Although it was foggy and windy it is still a blast to hang out outside with your friends and look at the beautiful scenery of Costa Rica. Ziplining was amazing also. It was very scary at first but once you went across the first line the rest were so fun! Being able to take a warm shower and sleep in a nicely made bed and eat buffet meals are very different after spending time in areas where none of that stuff is available. It is a eye opener to experience what we have the past few days and go back into normal life. After walking door to door delivering food to people living in a tin house and seeing the tears in their eyes and the thankfulness for just a bag of food, my outlook on things has changed. Now, I definitely don't think the same when it comes to the blessings we have and I definitely acknowledge it and thank God for it.
