Though it's been nearly three weeks, I still remember my first time walking home. It was after our urban orientation that first Sunday afternoon, so the sun had already set. As it was only my second day here, I didn't quite realize that my street was not a major one--instead, it was quite dark and empty (also because it was a Sunday night, I'm pretty sure).
I got so scared that I almost started running home. And I kept praying. I was reminded of that story (don't mind the reposting part of my note) about the girl who is protected by two large men (angels, in my opinion) in a dark alleyway...
and before I knew it, I was home. :) praise God!
Moral of the story: Walk down avenues at night. They're much more well-lit.
And trust God. :)
avenues versus streets? whats the difference? just the size?
ReplyDeletehaha here, the avenues are a ton more populated and well-lit at night, usually :)
ReplyDeleteAvenues or avenidas are our big streets.. and streets or calles are like our road/drive here =)
