So heres the deal i went back to work tonight for the first time since iv been back from Thailand! A bunch of our youth, my wife and some other young people from our church and I were there to experience the culture and help build a dormitory at an orphanage.
picture if you will 500 children all between the ages of 4 and 16 all living together, working together and playing will little supervision. you would probably conjure pictures of total chaos but that would be far from true.
Now picture me in a small pub mixing a great band making music for um drunk people.
For two weeks i felt like i was living for a real purpose and tonight i realized that iv been working for an industry that consumes people.
I don’t know what to think really but right now i wish i was back with the children in the orphanage.

hang on, by “or don’t” i meant not immediately. i read that back and it sounded pretty harsh. that was unintentional.
