The past two and a half days opened my eyes to something I thought only existed in movies. I never realized just how a simple life can be so difficult. Also, seeing a grown man weep can really, really make an impact. I can say the purpose of this activity was indeed met.

Meeting new people is always exciting. But learning more about a person you know is beyond compare. So, to the new people, it was nice meeting you and thank you for all the laughs. To my companions, thank you for sharing your stories with me. Having talked to you in such depth is truly one of the highlights of my weekend.
