 * Most Recent High (check back in the future for updates): Just got back from my Community Service trip to North Carolina and I can sum the experience up in one word: incredible. The first day, we made lunches of cheese sandwiches, an apple, a banana, a bottle of water, and a moonpie (it's a Southern thing) and placed them in hand-decorated paper-bags which we then handed out in an Asheville park that has a large homeless population.  They were a huge success and I met some incredible people.  That night, we attended a Narcotics Anonymous meeting (an activity I would recommend to anyone, whether you're a user or not; you hear some of the most incredible stories of the human condition and personal triumph within that one hour), and I met Billy, a 22-year-old ex-narcotics user.  He was such an incredible poet but was too shy and sweet to get any of his work published.  I think we may have encouraged him enough to do it because he left that meeting with a huge smile on his face!  The second day we cleaned up a homeless day shelter which hadn't been cleaned since last February.  Here I met Carol, a homeless woman with a college education and a son attending UTK.  She was so wise I could've listen to her all day.  The third day we went to the Cherokee reservation in NC and fixed up a Cherokee orphanage (I helped in the building of a prayer circle out in the woods).  The final day, we participated in a Lakota/Cherokee sweat lodge, one of their most sacred ceremonies.  I have so many stories to tell of the lodge, but I'll keep it short and simply say that it was intense.  Thank God I drank those 5 or so bottles of Dasani the day before!  I could talk all day about my trip, but I'll leave with the words of Amy, the Cherokee elder, when she said, "O ma ta ki a se," which means "all my relations," but has a deeper meaning that connects us to the entire cosmos.  -- Life is about what you put out
 * Reason My Page Is So Unoriginal: I'm not familiar enough with Wikiformat to add pictures and line breaks (I'm so pathetic sometimes).
