I know that the deadline has passed, and honestly I am not writing this to try and win money for the trip. After thinking more about the trip and having a couple of conversations with some friends about what we will be doing, I had another thought of what I am most looking forward to.
Though we will be seeing some amazing things, learning some amazing history, and meeting some amazing people, the thing I am MOST looking forward to is spending 50 days traveling the world with 3 of my closest friends. It is no mystery that the Blessed 9 are no ordinary group of cousins, and this trip is only going to bring Tim, Sam, Tommy and myself ever closer.
We have no illusions of a conflict-free trip, and we all know there will be times of testing and frustration for each of us. There will be arguments, some hurt feelings, and potentially some punches thrown (we will try to avoid this one, but we're guys, come on). What is exciting is, we all know that this time together is only going to make us closer.
After 2 years of praying, planning, saving and fund raising, we will finally be able to enjoy the fruit of all of our hard work. I cannot wait to learn more about my cousins, myself and the Lord as we experience life in real and raw way together. 50 days of eating, sleeping, laughing, and crying together, our relationship will be taken to a different level.
This trip is going to be a turning point in all of our lives, and is going to further solidify the tightly knit relationship that we have known all of our lives.
