Haiti Mission Participant viewpoint

July 22, 2012

Hey, anybody out there got a dream? How do you see yourself today, and what do you want to smile about at the end of all your tomorrows? May I borrow a few moments of your time and share some thoughts about a challenging, rewarding investment I made of my time this past week?

I decided to fulfill a dream so I joined a team going on a medical mission trip to Haiti. It was with Hearts Afire, based in Sarasota, FL. My plan was to go and bless these people. Well, it backfired!

I am a private duty home health aide in Sarasota, who was trained at Take Care. I wanted to use my talents and training to give, but what happened was I received a changed heart and view on life itself! What did I learn? That people with nothing have a gift to give you and it is love; and they never forget your face.

What did I experience? Too much to blog. I challenge you to find out for yourself. You will never regret the investment because the return is high. So go for it. Change a life and be changed. Come on USA! Make your life happen!
