SUMMARY
I had never been in an airplane before I flew to the Philippines. I have never lived with such a proud people--in what we in the USA call extreme poverty--and felt so rich. I traveled half way around the world and discovered that God still knew my name and the contents of my heart. I found that love is universal. I realized that I really have nothing at all to complain about and everything to be thankful for. This trip...which I set up myself 2 years in advance (including booking my own flight itinerary) has changed my life forever! I'll never be the same again...and as my guide said to me as I left her security and her side: "MAHAL KITA AT INGAT KA PALAGI!" (translation: I love you and take care always!)
