Pay it Forward

And I'm back. WOW, what an amazing trip. I am very thankful that I went on the trip. It was challenging emotionally and physically but an incredible experience. I had no idea what to expect but was pleasantly surprised by the group bonding and service projects. The devastation in the gulf coast is unimaginable. I cannot express in words how many people's lives were affected by the hurricanes.

The trip really made me open my eyes and be thankful for what I have and the people in my life. STLF is an excellent organization; I only wish I would have gotten involved sooner. I am actually considering leading a high school bus this upcoming Wednesday-Sunday. My parents think I'm crazy, but I think it would be so much fun and I am so "on fire" about this group that it would make it would be a blast.

There is so much I could say about this trip, but I really want to keep this short.

Good night to all!
