Isn't it amazing...

I find I'm thinking those words so often as I go throughout my days here. Each month here has brought me so many moments of amazement, inspiration, wonder, joy, laughter, and peace.

Some of those moments in the last month include simply moments in friendships with Irish friends, being inspired by and encouraged to grow by my women bible study friends, a great sermon/worship time at the maynooth community church, enjoying a tasty home-made dinner with a good friend (having a meal-plan at duke, this is the most cooking i've ever done!), enjoying the 5-6 different varieties of daffodils on this campus that stayed in blossom for over six weeks, witnessing beauty and love in the world amidst the tragedies that have struck both Duke (rest in peace, Chris 4/3/07) and Virginia Tech.

I hate to write too much here, as I'd so much rather share with you all in person whenever I see you next. I am looking froward to finishing up final papers and exams in the next two weeks, though, and hopefully having about 2 more weeks to travel before coming home May 26, then heading down to Durham a few days later... til then, a few pictures...
