LIFE is an opportunity, benefit from it. LIFE is a beauty, admire it. LIFE is a dream, realize it. LIFE is a challenge, meet it. LIFE is a duty, complete it. LIFE is a game, play it. LIFE is a promise, fufill it. LIFE is sorrow, overcome it. LIFE is a song, sing it. LIFE is a struggle, accept it. LIFE is a tragedy, confront it. LIFE is an adventure, dare it. LIFE is luck, make it. LIFE is too precious, do not destroy it. LIFE is life, fight for it. So I'm still in the USA, but I leave for Italy in a little over 12 hours. I will be leaving from Traverse, going to Chicago, then to Germany (where I will spend about 7 hours in the airport ahhhh!) and then off to Florence. I will arrive hopefully around 2:00pm, which will be 8am here...Italy is 6 hours ahead. So keep me in your prayers, I have a long day of traveling tomorrow, and by myself too! Its going to be a challenge but I think I'm up for it. Take care and I can't wait to talk to ya'll when I arrive!!!!! -Ciao!
