Day #114: Kameelputs, SA: What I Really Want...

I slept this afternoon. It's too cold to sleep at night. Last night I realized that what I really want is Dale-his natural heat and warmth. I asked God for peace and comfort, to embrace this new love (among other things). I really must give it all to Him. It's my last option when clearly it should be my first. Oh, I'm learning. I can't leave this place any less strong. I won't surrender to anything guided by ungodly motives. I'll fight. I'll push through. I'm a soldier humbled only by the power of God, love, and things good and pure.

As a side note, the people of Mammutla Village, where one of my three schools is, has no idea why I'm here, even after many explanations. It's very frustrating, but I hope to set them straight again tomorrow.
