Three Reasons Why I Stay

Usha, Keerthika, and Devi Prya

Posted by PicasaThank goodness, it wasn't too late when I realized that what these children need the most is not an English teacher, but the warmth and love of a mother. That, I know how to do. Their love is unconditional. And so is mine.

  1. Glad you are staying! And I can't wait to take you out for a cheeseburger. You look like you could use one! I got your letter about 5 days ago! Pith helmet man comes through! A letter is on it's way to you from ZigZag. . .

  2. Rachel! Zig Zag seems like a mirage and a beautiful dream at the moment! I had forgotten my ties to that place. I hope you enjoyed your little vacation. I can't wait to get your letter! I'm glad to know the little man in the Pith Helmet and old bicycle did not fall into the ditch somewhere between here and a PO. :)

  4. They are why you stayed and why you came, along with the many other children and Indian adults. Never doubt...your legacy will live on...sniff.
