An interesting metaphor I think…

I do not know why relationships are constantly on my mind…maybe because I am realizing how fortunate I am to have the relations that I currently have back in the States. While ten weeks does not seem like a long time to some, it has been somewhat daunting at times because I am not home, and I am constantly being awoken by the reality of third world existence in the lives of these amazing people. I am participating in environments very different in nature to my own. So while it has been a unique and interesting pleasure, it has been challenging being away at the same time from familiar places and people that I love. I see constant reminders of relationships, and while some of you might find it interesting in the metaphor that I describe in the following clip, some of you might wonder, “What planet is he living on?” Nevertheless, I think in some ways this is how a friendship and/or relationship should work.

A metaphor you will want to listen to!
