My hearts is more deeply intertwined with those counselors and students who have been apart of the JEC experience three years or more. Several of my students this year have been in my class for four years. Several Polish counselors have been a part of the JEC for all six years. Every year our hearts and lives become more deeply intertwined. I laugh when they laugh, I hurt when they hurt, and I cry when they cry.
Today, the flood of tears, is not good bye but God be with you till we meet again ... at camp next year, in America, or in heaven.
Good bye my friends, no scratch that, God be with you my friends, and I pray if it is His will we will meet again.

Heartfelt tears
Tears well up just remembering.
ReplyDeleteIt is always difficult to say goodbye or, until we meet again, when something so significant comes to a close. Like Lenny, I felt those emotions returning from our departure day last year. What a wonderful group of kids and adults!
