Finally an Entry

Really? I have not blogged in months. To be completely truthful, I was pretty burnt out and looking to write my new chapter in this book we call life. So alas, the time is here.

I am sitting on my bed in lodging here at Camp Zama thinking about what to do my last 48 hours here. Do I say goodbye? Do I say see you later?

I will go with see you later. The military is very large, yet anyone who is a part of it (active duty or civilian) will tell you it is actually really small. I know that even though I am headed to a very small base there will be Zama people there and maybe even a few Kwajites.

On Tuesday, I close the Japan chapter of my journey. I leave here changed, thankful, better; for I have lived, loved, and learned here. I would never give back all that I will take with me from Japan.

To the next adventure. Netherlands, here I come!
