Juma's Thoughts On Leaving

The thought of leaving something you love is hard. When I first told my friends that we were going to Uganda back in June, they didn't really care. They didn't care because they thought it would be one or two years before we would leave. Just the other day I told my friends that we were leaving on February 1. They were not really happy and kept asking questions like, "How long will you be there?" or "When will you come back?" Now at the moment, I don't feel extremely sad, but I know that it will hit me suddenly and I will be extremely sad to leave. But I know that what is happening isn't being controlled by me, mama or papa but God. His way is the best way. So that's the way for me.
