Endurance - It's sometimes difficult to keep going through the heat and tiredness to get the job done. But God gives us endurance to get everything done.
Acceptance - The Haitians have taught me so much about acceptance. They are so willing to start a conversation with you and ask you about yourself. The kids love to play games with you or hold your hand. They are so kind and welcoming.
Persistence - The people here are not quick to give up. They are quick to learn, and despite their laughing and poking fun they are quite persistent in trying to understand our English.
Happiness - The happiness here is shown in the little things. Simple things like playing hot hands or photographs bring us, and the Haitians happiness.
Patience - Often times language barriers create frustrations among us and the Haitians, despite this we all try to practice grace. Perhaps this means maybe we should all learn some more creole.
