Crash

I was watching the movie crash the other night. If you have not seen this movie it is a must! I have seen it many times and I still just love this movie. The part that hit me last night is when Sandra Bullocks character is talking to her friend on the phone about how angry she is. She says she is angry and all the time and she does not even know why. This got me because it was not more than just a few weeks ago that I was feeling this way. I could not pin point any reason for my anger...it was just there...I would get frustrated with the other missionaries here, I was so angry at the administration, angry at this country of Honduras and the culture of these people, I was angry that I was teaching at a bilingual school of rich kids, and this then made me mad at God. Why had he brought me here to Honduras! Why did this have to be my year as a SM. I did not feel like I was making a difference in this world.

Now I don't feel like this anger anymore...maybe this is partly due to the fact that I only have 21 more days here. But I just find it interesting how this happens. How can someone get this angry? How does this emotion take over our lives like that? The movie just made me think about this...so I thought I would share.
