Hello Hello!


I want to officially invite you to be apart of the blogging you find below. They are to show a piece of my journey; what has been, what is and what is to come.
I invite you to come back and be apart of the stories, my thoughts, frustrations and laughs. I invite you to be apart of my good days and the not so good ones.
Join me as I travel to Russia, Eastern Europe and other places. Join me as I step out in faith to where I believe that God is calling me.

Lets Go....

A boost

I have found a new boost for my language learning... ANGER!!!
Maybe that sounds bad but its not really... I came home the other day frustrated and very angry because of feeling misunderstood and left out. I immediately sat down with someone and learned right then and there how to express how I was feeling in Russian... and then the next day I was able to speak with the other involved... he was very surprised as I told him everything in Russian!!!! I did not understand all of his response to me but I got the main points!

It has in general though really spurred me on... as I have recently noticed that I am more and more frustrated at having to find a translator or I can not be understood... I just need to make sure I am not staying angry, as that would not be good... but letting it give me boost to learn and study language is good!!!
