I don't even know where to begin. I can't really explain the past two weeks. It seems like every day, I've been able to learn a little more about this world, to experience and grow a little more. YSP has definitely been the highlight of my summer. I feel so blessed that I have these high expectations for everything, but they always still seem to exceed my expectations and catch me by surprise. I learned to do things on my own, to be more open to new things, and to figure out what really matters to me.
It's been such a rollercoaster ride: so many ups and downs and triple loops that spin your head right round, but at the end of the ride, you just want to get back on and do it all over again, because you know that even through all that, it's worth it.
I learned that you have to know where you stand, what you believe in, and why you believe it.
It doesn't even matter what other people think; it's what matters to you. Have faith and fight for what you believe in, because it's worth it. It really is.
It seemed like whenever I was down about one thing, something better always came along. I guess that's a bigger life lesson I learned. When one door closes, go through the back:)
I learned a lot from my friends too. Everyone had their own talents, and it was really great that we could all appreciate and share that.
This trip allowed me to see the world in a broader light, it's made me miss like I've never missed people before. How can 2 weeks really do ALL this? I actually have no idea. Every day amazes me, and this trip is clearly no exception<3
I love you ysp family
