May 25As I again wind down my stay here in Romania I will say as always, it is bitter sweet. It wouldn't be truthful to say I don't miss home. I do, but, I will miss being here too. I was born 66 years ago on Sand Mountain , New Home Community . I never thought life would take me this far. I can tell you about the beauty of the Grand Canyon . I can attest to the majesty of the Eiffel Tower. I can tell you of the beauty of Prague and Vienna . I have seen the Sun rise out of the Atlantic and have watched it sink back into the Pacific. I have gazed at Hippocampus and lions and elephants in Africa. All this said, I count it yet a greater blessing to watch, Florintin do needle point, Costell paint works of art, Gelu sitting in his room making beaded articles, because he can't get to workshop. I could name them all but I just call them the kids of Tanner Romanian Mission. I indeed can leave this world one day and of course see yet a place that makes any other pale in comparison . I will meet then the creator of all I have ever seen and more. But, to make it all the more beautiful I will see all these guys and gals there too, without any restraints . I am far more blessed than I could ever be, a blessing . If you ever get a chance to go, and be exactly in God's will, do it for there remains no greater blessing than to be, right there.
