Waiting

"If everything was known, everything would be forgiven"

Live without resentment, it is a poison to the soul.  Inside the soul of another, I am sure all things done make perfect sense.  It is my perception that needs cleansing when things don't go as planned, I need to recognize the  signs and act accordingly.  Truly if we knew everything then all things would be forgiven.

Months earlier, it seemed like all the signs were pointing in different directions or where to go or what to do.  I am now sure that Peace Corps is the right thing for me at this time in my life.  I decided to join Peace Corps because I had no other plan, no future goal, and no certain job.  Applying was a way to pass the time as I waited for an uncertain future.  I think there is flow in life towards purpose because some how I randomly decided to do the right thing when I applied almost 8 months ago.    

Planting a Seed

My name is Alexander Kent.  I have created this blog first as a journal and a creative outlet that I can maintain as a way of metabolizing and documenting my two and a half year journey to Africa with Peace Corps.

I have many hopes for it though.  I hope it will keep me in contact with cherished friends and family.  I hope it will connect them to the culture that I find.  And finally, I hope you will share whatever interesting or intriguing post or picture you find with others that they may gain a closer connection to another world.
