1 year anniversary of this life changing experience.
Thank you...People are
basically kind.
I looked
into the eyes of the man that reached into our cab and ripped my travel wallet
from my body. The police asked me to
identify him. I could see his fear and
foremost the light within him.
The incident
took place 5 minutes from our hostel.
Scores of people, our taxi driver and the police ran after him and
caught him. Dan from Community hostal (www.communityhostel.com) came on the 7 hour journey of 3 different police stations.
Countless
numbers of people came to the station in search for support. An elderly woman entered that had been beaten
by four men. Dan translated as we gathered her friends around her. We held her
in loving arms as she remembered her breath.
She found some peace and became strong once again.
We never
know what life is going to bring us. Today I hold the vision that my passport,
iphone, and credit cards find their way back to me. And the money is used to help someone in need.
At this
moment I rest and enjoy the splendor of Ecuador. I KNOW one thing for sure… people are
basically kind!
