Things I Love about Mexico and Things I Love About the USA

THINGS I LOVE ABOUT GOING TO MEXICO
*Time seems to kinda stop…no body is in a hurry to do anything…no cell phones, computers, televisions, email, no bills for me to pay officially….The sea of countless stars above me at night….Ladies who willingly to a great job of fixing my hair….Just a seemingly simplier way of life. I always “reconnect” with God when I go there. How someone be there and not see his majesty between the mountains and the stars above you. When I am there this verse repeats over and over in my head. The way of life there gives you time to reflect and be still and look at good.
Psalm 46:10 (NIV)
10 "Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth."
Psalm 46:10 (Message—just because I enjoy reading this version A LOT--- it amuses me!!!)
8-10 Attention, all! See the marvels of God!
He plants flowers and trees all over the earth,
Bans war from pole to pole,
breaks all the weapons across his knee.
"Step out of the traffic! Take a long,loving look at me, your High God,
above politics, above everything."

Of course the Message reminds me on one I thing I love the best about Mexico…NO TRAFFIC!!!!

THINGS I LOVE ABOUT THE USA
*Flushing toilets….(no out houses or bucket flushing)
*Putting toilet paper in toilet papers not trash cans
*Lights on the street to see where you are going at night.
*Being closer to my family and being able to talk them on when I want to.
*Being able to talk to and communicate with almost anyone I want to. I GOTTA LEARN SOME SPANISH!!!
