okay agian venturing out

so I have been trying to figure out how to describe this place. I am stil at a loss of words. I have been here three weeks adn am now just starting to like it. I have been fine i gues God as prepared me enough adn put me through othere things to prepare me. I know that if I am safe and have my basic needs met like food shelter clothes, sleep than you can do it. So we have been good but. the rest has been a lot to take in. For one I stick out. And yeah STICK OUT in latin america bu tthis is difrent the culture is so diffrent. So dirffent. and I am not very trusting so that can be draining. BUt as I said things are getting much beter. you see on teh base the village kids come and hang on you and are constanly asking you for things. it is hard. and you want to be soft adn stop for teh one like Jesus leads but if I did everything they asked I would have not lasteda week. So you get the sence that that is teh culture people only looking at you as how to get some thing form you. But that is not the truth of teh culture. I went out int eh village yesterday with 2 pastars and a family from New Zealand. Teh people were so nice and not looking at us as what we can get from them. it was nice to be seen as a person. A diffrent person you definalty attract ever eye int eh place but still there was a diffrence. I made my heart glad and remeamed teh culture for me. I am sure Go d will provide more opportunites. I say opportunites because I can't really venture out alone so I am kinda at the mercy of others to join me. so we shall see what happens.
