Hello, Palestine.

I am so about my new pen pal! For one of my TESL classes, Professor Kobashigawa is working with her friend, Debbie, in Palestine to pair us up with Palestianian students to email. My pen pal is named Maysoon and I am going to send her an email tonight! I cannot wait to hear about her life and share my life with her, but I am also nervous. I started to read Debbie's blog and am already recognizing how terribly sheltered my life is, how thoroughly my worldview will be challenged, and how much my heart will break for this woman, for those people.

More in that familiar theme I have been blogging about. God is really working to break down my cultural barriers, eh? I know he is preparing me for something huge after graduation, I hope I can keep up!
