home in Canada already. Especially since we've made our decision to
return home and made travel plans, I can hardly wait to get back.
It's too easy for me to focus on all the things I'm going to be happy
to leave behind here in PNG: being sweaty and stinky most of the time
due to the hot weather and high humidity; the bugs and pests in the
house; the mould and having clothes that smell of it, even when
they're clean...
But Paul challenged me today, asking me how we can make the rest of
our time here in PNG meaningful, instead of just being a "waiting
period" of days until we can get back home.
So - this got me thinking, and I realized that he's right. There are
some great and wonderful things about living here, in this country so
far from what I have known for most of my life back in Canada. So my
goal is to concentrate on the positives, on some of the things I'll
miss about living here in PNG.

It is so easy to get focused in looking forward to the next thing, meanwhile missing the present that we live in. Only a month or so to go till you are summering in BC. Enjoy your last days and weeks in PNG. We will see you sooner than you know it!
