Where has the time gone?

I can’t believe we are only 12 days away from takeoff.

It seems like it was just yesterday that Hima and I became friends.  Just yesterday that she asked “if I ever get married, would you come to the wedding even if it is in India?”.  Just yesterday that she texted me a picture of ring.  Just yesterday that we booked our flights.

I’m so grateful for our friendship — I know that I have grown so much from all of the experiences that she has included me in and I know that this trip is going to continue to grow me.

And really…this trip is completely different than anything we’ve ever done, because we are actually going for an event. But not just one event… eight events, because weddings in India are not just a couple hours long… they are days long!  Which means there is a lot of preparation and coordination required, and so these next 12 days are going to be nice and busy getting everything ready.

I anticipate the days will go just as slow as they will quick.
