Closing Thoughts

During our final moments before we depart for America, I sense a unique high from the remaining MEMObers...

The type of high that comes from fatigue from finished work and duty fulfilled. A sense of fulfillment not just from helping those in need, but from helping those of our own kind.  

There is a glow here, a glow that comes from new friendships and strengthened bonds. Everybody's faces are ever so slightly lifted, as each of us reflect on memories made on this trip. Whether it was seeing the joy on an elder's face who just saw a doctor for the first time in years... or figuring out riddles such as Black Magic or Ronald's infamous, Open, Half-Open, or Closed Circle... or playing silly games at Scholarship Day... or learning how to bargain with the locals... or when we danced together... or when we wandered the streets of Saigon... or simply when we talked into the wee hours of the night.



6G: Mission Accomplished. 

P.s. Don't drop that thun thun thun.
