The Basics of the Trip - Why I am Going....

gosh, this is all much harder than i thought. i've been debating what to say - not because i want to say things right but because it's really hard to capture what is going on in my mind and in my heart with all of this - and it's hard to be so vulnerable. When i look back at my life, i can see so many parallels - so many different things i've been involved with that have led me to this - but that isn't it.

i am going because i can't not go. this is almost impossible to explain. i just think about these girls and it tears me up inside. i think about the girls that have not been rescued and i can't even breathe. there isn't this disillusionment that singlehandedly i am going to be changing the world but there comes a point where you have to do something. these girls don't know unconditional love, that i can not even begin to understand, that is total injustice. so i'm going to show them love - because that's really all i can do.

oh, and God told me to....which is always huge.
