This is me

I was on my way to the office listening to some songs on my phone when suddenly I discovered this song by Faith Hill...I like it so that's why I am posting it here. enjoy!

Yeah,I have my addictions
And keep my share of secrets
And things you'll never see
I get selfish and defensive
And pay too much attention
To my insecurities
Oh I,I'm just like everybody else
I try to love Jesus and myself

I don't know what you believe
Or what you think of what you see
But this is a part of me
What I do and who I am
All of my impurities
Are right here on my sleeve
This is me
This is me

My heart breaks for the homeless
I worry about my parents
And all my bills are late
I'm dealing with the changes
This complicated strangeness
Of seeing life this way
I,I'm just like everybody else
I try to love Jesus and myself

I don't know what you believe
Or what you think of what you see
But this is a part of me
What I do and who I am
All of my impurities
Are right here on my sleeve
This is me
This is me

I laugh at silly movies
Tear up when I see babies
And I'm stubborn as a stone
I criticize my body
I wonder if I'm ready
To ever be alone
Oh I,I'm just like everybody else
I cry,just like everybody else

I don't know what you believe
Or what you think of what you see
But this is a part of me
What I do and who I am
All of my impurities
Are right here on my sleeve
This is me
This is me

FSD

As most of you may already know, I am currently working for FSD, which stands for the Foundation for Sustainable Development. FSD supports the efforts of grassroots development organizations in the developing world that are working to better their communities, environments, and the economic opportunities around them.
Joining this new team and working on a complete different field was a tough decision for me to take. I won’t be tutoring neither Spanish nor English for the time being, and to be honest I don’t know for how long it will be. What I know is that this is a great opportunity to do something to improve the lives of others in need.
The first interns arrived few days ago. It has been great getting to know each one of them, spending time at their jobs and learning more about their expectations. My site team is awesome. They make me feel so comfortable.
I feel I have a lot to say but I rather elaborate more in the future than rumble on for pages and pages now.
