In the blink of an eye, my trip has come to a close. Words that come to mind are blessed, triumphant, amazing, unforgettable, healing, hilarious...
In just under three months, I was able to do everything I needed to do. I enjoyed the full spectrum of this wonderful country from the food
To the culture
I met up with past students
And fell in love with new ones
But most importantly, I reconnected with my loved ones
I can never properly express my adoration of these ladies. They are each amazing women who are so dear to me and I'll never cease to be amazed at the great blessing of having them in my life.
And now, I'm ready to be back. I'm ready to put this blog to rest once and for all. A part of my heart will always be in Japan but I'm ready now. Ready for new adventures - here in Chicago or wherever life may take me next.
ありがとう日本。また、ね。
Thank you, Japan. Until next time...
