After a week

Hello dear ones,

It's been such a crazy week since I came back to Mozambique. Crazy in a good way and a bad way.

Crazy good as in I've met so many wonderful people. They were such a big support and could bot of asked for a better group to spend this week with. Not just the group but all the great experiences. From building a jungle gym to woman's amd kids ministry. Every little moment was great. I would not exchange it for anything.

Crazy bad I won't go in to too much but I've been going through some personal issues. So even though I've had so many good experiences it was shadowed by sadness most of the week. It's been a great challenge and I've wanted to give up and go home and be around my family but I've decided to push through a bit longer.

At the moment I'm at the beach, so its a wonderful place to get quiet and connect with God and myself. What I usually do is keep busy to forget the pain and this is not healthy. For the next week its going to be me and God. Being in another country away from your loved ones when you are in a bad  space is difficult but in the end I think  I need this.

It's so difficult especially being so far from my loved one's but what doesn't kill you makes you stronger right? Oh I hope so.

A little background on this photo we built a jungle gym and I tried to stay away from the paint as I always get paint everywhere. Now on the last day we painted someone pants and i help and this is the end product of my hands guess which hand is mine. I'll give you a hint the purple one.
 
So a little piece I wrote that this photo made me think of. Once again I'm no writer so its not so great.

Sometimes life gets dirty and difficult but when you put your hands together it becomes a bit easier.

It is great to know that there are so many hands to help, they might not always be right next to me but I know that I have so many people I can call of i need them. Even if they are 1000s of kilometres away.

Stay humble xx
Anschke
