Visiting The Salvation Army Shelter

Visiting the shelter today was a really interesting experience. I saw all different types of people from all backgrounds struggling to get their lives together and making the best out of a situation for themselves and their children. It was really sad to see some of the situations people are really in. I really got a grasp of the life in Tennessee for these people and it saddens me to see them this way. I wish I got the chance to ask more questions about the shelter but I unfortunately couldn't bring myself to bring it up in conversation.

The trip so far has been such a great learning experience overall and I really am glad to have met such amazing people. Everyone is so friendly, funny, and great to be around and I'm really happy we're all such great friends. This is one of the best things about trips like these. Meeting new people and sharing these experiences with them is great!
