My biggest take away from this course is what I've learned about what other women and children live through every day in other parts of the world. The safety and security we take for granted everyday is truly a luxury. The day to day actives that we do with out a second thought many of them can't do and probably don't even realize they exist. We will stand in line to buy a $600 iPhone and not think twice about the women on the other side of the world that can't make the decision to take birth control to save her life or the lives of the children that she already has and can't feed. This time of year so many are Black Friday shopping and decorating for the holidays, remember to give thanks for all that you have and the things you take for greeted. I can't say that I would be able to go to these villages and help first hand but I can, going forward, remember those less fortunate than myself in my prayers and look for opportunities to assist from home.
