What's the best decision you made this year? - 19 December

Trying to branch out from the small world of Emmanuel Baptist and the surrounding neighborhood.  Branching out has meant building my own community ... sharing with people I may not have met otherwise, going places I might not have otherwise gone, etc.  Highlights:  a wedding in Nahuizalco (in the mountains near the border with Guatemala), dancing to my heart's content with good friends, dreaming up the possibility of making beer (note:  dreaming is the key word), and spending Christmas in a community where I feel loved and valued.
