This is what I am doing and it is going to be massive. I hope you all support it. The Nashville event is going to be at Centennial Park and it should be amazing.
On another, less fun note, I am definitely still in need of donations. If any of you have anything at all to spare, I could definitely use it as we are on our own for food and other necessities (toiletries, and stuff) while on the road. I realize we are all struggling in our own ways right now, but every little bit helps. :)
It is currently snowing in Kansas. And, by snowing, I mean there is a blizzard advisory. The forecast calls for 15 inches and I just walked in about ten to get out to the van. Pretty intense. Also, we are supposed to go to Minnesota and North Dakota and both are pretty flooded right now. Oh, the road...
I am seeing so many interesting patterns in people on the road. It is amazing to see the light bulb go off in peoples' heads when they realize that this war is even going on...and then that they can do something about it...and then the commitment inside to do something about it. It is beautiful to see. I am also noticing how so many people have such different opinions about love. It is strange, really. I guess it is hard to know a thing if you can't even define it and I have been really contemplating what the definition of love is. The Bible obviously gives the perfect definition of it, so I guess what I am really trying to do is find a modern interpretation of what exactly it all means. Ideas? Thoughts?
I love you all.

Jesus didn't know me, yet he gave his LIFE for me. You don't know the individuals that have been abducted and are fighting in a war in which they have no interest, yet you (and yours) are giving 5 months of your lives and energies to try to pull them out of there and make a difference in their lives. I'd say that's about the same thing (relatively speaking). Suggestion: love is giving as much as one can possibly give without knowing (or caring) what the full cost is. No? I can't tell you how proud of you I am.
I hope to be like you when I grow up.
