Doesn't want what it doesn't have. Doesn't have a swelled head,. Doesn't force itself on others,. Isn't always "me first,". Doesn't fly off the handle,. CARE : ...

La Vida de Honduras! Thursday, May 28, 2009. This is Liz' Mom and Dad writing from Montana de Luz. We arrived yesterday in Honduras and were delighted to see our daughter for the first time in 10 months. We had a good trip and they decided to allow us into the country. We just finished a water balloon fight (bomba de Agua) with the kids and some volunteers working here. Although still a little damp, I'm feeling quite refreshed. Crawling up my leg. Blessings to all back home. Rannie and Carol Goering.

Oh Yes I Know: Third Culture Community
http://ohyesiknow.blogspot.com/2010/07/third-culture-community.html
Oh Yes I Know. Your brother's cries of jubilation. Wednesday, July 21, 2010. The shame that comes with showing rich friends your life without air conditioning, pools, and servants becomes something familiar. We've learned how it feels. We've learned that to fend off the shame, we must concentrate on what we love and what is beautiful about ourselves, our cultures (as confused as they may be), our families, and our situations. Thanks for sharing this Michael! July 27, 2010 at 7:51 AM. Me - Moi - Yo - Io.

A homeless man in Lafayette, Indiana expressed to me his anger that most people invest more money in and spend more time on their dogs than the suffering human beings down the street. This is true, we go to great lengths to satisfy a selfish whim; yet, when the most crucial needs of our neighbors stare us in the face, we pretend not to notice. Monday, April 20, 2009. Her husband was annoyed by the womens group...

Oh Yes I Know. Your brother's cries of jubilation. Monday, June 22, 2009. Culture Accepted as Truth. We’re so used to all this, we can’t even imagine things any other way. We’re convinced that the way we see it is the (t / T)ruth. But then breaking that in ourselves and in others is why cultural exchange is always so rich and rewarding. Saturday, June 13, 2009.
