Here I am age 25, having just gotten done with my first summer working in Dine Bikeyah at BABR... Now I am in a city far different from the Pinon Pine and Sage Brush covered desert which I am in love with. Here I can hear the lone coyote howling his lonely watches through the night in the near by graveyard where he lives. Here I can here the ambulance bring the injured the the hospital 3 blocks away all hours of the night from my 5th story window. Here I can feel the breeze from the water of lake Michigan 8 blocks away.
Yet my heart had no peace. I am as always a wander in a strange land, far from the place I call home....We know we just have no peace in the city and have to follow our callings... By the time our 14 months living in Chicagoland will be up, we will be restless and trapped by the buildings....already are just 4 months in. Still I love the city... but forever it seems the open road is calling...
