Day #3 : Philadelphia, PA, USA: Freedom of Followed Dreams

I feel great!! Good music, amazing people-what more could I possibly request?! And HECK YEAH---I'm leaving this afternoon for South Africa!! It doesn't get any more sweet than this. Imagine all the possibilities. It's consuming.

My God, how I love you. You fill me with such life! I was so frightened, but now-here in this place-it's clear that I made the right choice. I am so fulfilled! Oh, I know it's subject to change, as everything is, but I'll survive all the storms. How can I not make it?! I have all the tools for success: an intelligent mind, a strong heart, hands that heal, a thriving spirit, and the faith to create miracles. Damn, Jesus, we are good. What an amazing team!

I look around at the people-all these people-all in such a hurry, all lost in some way. There's such beauty in this world. I hope to always embrace it, to allow it to creep into this heart slowly and burst into everything I say and do. I want all that I give and do and am to be out of love. I've never felt so free!!
