The View from Down Here is Different...
Things have changed for me dramatically. For instance, I remember a story Wes told me when we were newly married. On his mission a sweet women had made him and his companion lemonade. However, when he went to drink it was full of ants. They must have gotten into the sugar. Do you know what he did??? He drank it anyway. Yep!
When Wes told me this so long ago, I was disgusted. Do you know what I did the other day? I drank lemonade with 3 ants in it. It wasn't because I didn't want to offend someone. I just didn't care. It was going to take too long to try and fish them out and I was hot and tired. As I was drinking my {ants} lemonade, I giggled at how silly I was to be horrified with his story.
Now don't worry, I won't feed you lemonade ala ant if you come visit me. And I certainly won't do it back in the states. But if I make another glass of lemonade for me and see a few ants floating in it, I probably won't fish them out.
Oh how this beautiful country has changed me.
