EASE

We are back and I am trying to put together our life here. Thus far the thing that strikes me is the ease of it all....aisles of food, smooth roads, hot showers, happy freinds and family....but still it is odd. Not a poor person in sight...many huge cars....people with no sense about how the rest of the world lives....just striving for the next better car, TV set, house etc....
Talk is all about the economy....I wanna scream WHATEVER....people have no idea what it means to live with NO money....eating the fruits and vegetables from your own land...
In the three days home....already three references to Africa as a country....embarassing.
I'll write more when less jetlagged and overwhelmed....but damn if my vanilla soy latte wasn't good this morning....
