Making them feel they aren't taking care of their guests is uncalled for.DeEtta @ Courageous Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06726346272268287588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16366204.post-34064579392656865232011-03-26T12:55:31.466-08:002011-03-26T12:55:31.466-08:00I am sad that a few teachers made a bad impression...I am sad that a few teachers made a bad impression about all teachers. I know a few who have pitched in.<br /><br />I don't have an opinion either way of staying or going.

Thanks for sharing t...wonderful post, De'Etta. Thanks for sharing this. We are all so concerned for you and for Japan and it helps to get your perspective and your Japanese friends.<br /><br />A always cringe at the "ugly American" behaviors some times. And I found the comment about American and Christian being so tied together. We all need to be more responsible with our words and actions and show a better light.<br /><br />Thank youDebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170186776403419013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16366204.post-16142515065792954792011-03-24T18:42:46.784-08:002011-03-24T18:42:46.784-08:00Those are some deep reflections, De'Etta.

It does make me reflect on how I live my day to day life here in the US, and gives me another specific to pray for as believers travel to other parts of the world to be lights in the darkness. Thank you for being a light. <br /><br />Just think of all the homeschool projects in your future as you look at ways of conserving energy and creating energy!Dejahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05490318819919659220noreply@blogger.com
