Sad times

My group of American friends here, who I travel with and talk to often includes 4 girls and 2 guys. It´s kind of a support group since all of us are away from home and going through similar situations. Last week one of my friends got a call from home that a member of her family was killed in a car accident. It was devistating for her, and she rushed home to be with her family. Unfortunately her trip was cut short, but it has really made all of us think about how lucky we are, and also how you never know what could happen. While we are enjoying ourselves so much in Chile, we are away from our families. It can be easy to take for granted, but seeing her go through this tragedy has made me more appreciative of my family and I talk to them as often as possible. As we are here in Chie, send your prayers to her and her family and hopefully everthing will turn out ok!
