Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime. ~Mark Twain

1 Week-ish

I will be returning to Los Angeles in just over a week from tonight. I am still excited to return, which is good. I am still scared to return, which is to be expected. I am going to be sad to leave my family behind again.

God has answered my prayer and I have really enjoyed my time here the last couple weeks. I have mostly not thought about LA or my impending job hunt. The result was a wonderful Christmas. I got great presents and gave in kind, but most important for me was the time I have spent with my extended family.

My family is very close and being able to spend one last Christmas at my grandpa's farm was a wonderful experience and one that I will sorely miss.

I will spend the next week seeing everyone I can and being with my family because after January 7th I am flying west to a new life. Hopefully this blog will be more interesting then.
