Hey guys, I'm in Brazil.
Yupp, it has been a long ride all the way from home,
with two transits and all-too-long plane rides.
[first was 7 hours, second was FOURTEEN hours, the last one was 4 hours.]
It feels surreal, even now.
And I know that I'm supposed to post
about the training and stuff,
[Which I will]
but I couldn't get to it because the last week before flying was crazy.
Meeting people and stuff,
I miss everyone back home. ):
But the ones I miss the most,
are the ones who could never come alive,
or come
back alive.
I don't wanna talk much about it,
but I should at least, write something.
So that there is a record at least.
[If I ever look back]
My grandpa passed away last friday.
The friday I was supposed to leave.
But I left anyway,
not because I'm a heartless grandchild,
but because there was really nothing else I could do.
I personally think,
that after the soul leaves the body,
the body is just a shell, lifeless,
in fact, one could even say that it's just soil, or ashes.
And so,
I can only hope that he accepted Jesus before he left,
and I'm glad that at least,
he was surrounded by my family just before he moved on.
I hope that you're in heaven, grandpa.
May you be at peace.
