I would like to begin with a warm welcome and an explanation. This blog is an attempt to connect great friends from around Canada (and elsewhere!). Through our Ghana blog, we were able to share experiences with friends and family, and examine interesting thoughts and ideas that we had about our time in and around Ghana.
Now, as we all head our separate ways, I crave the intelligent, critical, interesting, and thought-provoking discussions we had the opportunity to have in the past 22 months (it's been that long since we first met that day at the ILC!). These conversations have arisen from tro-tro rides, coffee dates, emails, short moments on the street, through bug-nets, meetings, flip-cup, late-night phone calls, notes passed through cubical walls, breakfasts, and many more. These moments have truly shaped me, and I often feel a little of each of you pour out of me as I ponder away at the great questions of this world and its complexities.
Community is important, and you are all a part of a community that I value. Hopefully, we can use this fancy and new technology to continue to be a part of eachother's communities. We can use this to post the happenings in our lives, and also to share things that we have been thinking about lately with eachother. Could be a neat way to share with eachother while miles apart!
I look forward to reading from you (as opposed to hearing from you, I guess).
Love Amy
