Yesterday was a good day for me... No, GREAT day
Why, you ask?
1. I found gas for less than $3.00 a gallon. $2.99 in fact. I consider that a miracle.
2. I got a visit from my not-so-nice-friend which under normal circumstances, I'm not happy. But considering I'll be on a beach in Costa Rica in one week, I say - Bring on the muscle aches and back pains!
3. I had the day off which gave me a chance to catch up on my tan that I lost while in Argentina.
4. My favorite yogurt was on sale at the supermarket.
5. I find out that I'll be hosting a Slovakian guy with nice, blue eyes and a killer smile for the next day and a half. So what if I only met him once in Castelgandolfo, and once in Loppiano? We're practically family now right?
6. I found $5.00 in a pair of old jeans...
7.... that I recently fit back into.
Ain't life grand??

SOLO GRAZIE
This is so clearly me. ELISA - naturale!
Regola d’oro: fa agli altri ciò che vorresti fosse fatto a te.
Don't think. Just love.
It is in love and through the practice of love that one can better comprehend the things of heaven, and that God can more easily enlighten our souls.
"Dovete avere una grande fiducia nei giovani: sono il futuro del mondo! Sono fatti per grandi ideali, e sanno seguirli con radicalità. ... E’ l’ideale di un mondo unito che li affascina. Sono i giovani, i ragazzi ed anche i bambini che trasmettono questo ideale ai loro coetanei". - Chiara Lubich

Chi sono io?

- There's so much of the world I'd like to see. The idea of taking a break from my studies and going on some sort of soul searching sabatical was the best thing I could have ever done. Last year, I packed my bags and headed for Italy. I hung around Rome for a bit, avoided gypsies in Roma Termini and eventually ended up on the outskirts of Florence, living in una piccola casetta with several other foreign roomies. After several months of new discoveries, la vita continua and I'm back in New York finishing up my degree in sociology. You'll find random foreign words within my blog every now and then. Everything from Italian, Portuguese, maybe French and Spanish...Don't worry, your computer isn't busted. I just forget how to say things in english sometimes.

One thing I know for sure...
I may not ever be able to rid this world of cancer. I can accept that. But I know in the depths of my soul that I am capable of doing extraordinary things if I do my part and LOVE. Love is like oxygen. Without it, we can no longer survive...

What a great day, but that last one has got to be THE BEST thing of all! ;)

Giulia - TELL me about it! I lost the weight I gained while in Italy... FINALLY!
Cate - Don't you know my casa doubles as an albergo for random people I meet through-out the world??? This house has plenty of room...and plenty of food! Besides, the parents are away for the weekend.
