The scene from my balcony in Pristina on Saturday night was absolutely amazing. Crescent moon. Shabby buildings and electrical hookups that look like bird's nests. People sitting at the "old man clubs" smoking, drinking, and undoubtedly talking about how much they love America. Young people (and lots of girls dressed for a party) bustling too and fro.
I wrote the following just after I took the above picture, then went to bed:
embrace every fleeting moment. view the world through rose colored glasses. accept the lot in life the LORD has gifted you. do all things in love. goodnight sweet, beautiful Kosovo - may you rise from the ashes and be a beacon of hope, life, and resurrection for all the world to see.
