When I was 19 years old (2006), I had the great privilege of traveling to a Haitian Orphanage to provide clothing and medical supplies. When I look back, it is difficult for me to tell who was the giver and who was the receiver. Haiti, you are a beautiful country that showed me material possessions are far from the reality of true happiness.
