Well, this post is coming rather quickly after the last one, so there's not a whole lot to say. Before I start though, I'll show you that this here is a pic of our little monkey friends, they're really quite cute when you look at them, but don't be deceived. What's going on right now is actually very interesting, and a little sad so don't read if you've got a big heart for animals. But how the monkey community works is there's an alpha male and he's completely in control, he runs the show. In due time, the monkeys begin to feel more and more comfortable around us humans and things begin to get out of control. What you do then is...this is where it gets sad...you shoot/kill a baby monkey. This results in the mothers beating the alpha male senseless, sometimes to death, because he's supposed to protect the babies. From either, either the alpha male learns its lesson and the monkeys stay back from the humans more, or the alpha is so beat that new male monkey fight for the open alpha spot, which one eventually earns. Either way peace is restored at the loss of one poor innocent monkey.
With that said, I had my first Life and Teachings of Jesus class today. It's taught by Reg, the man the myth the legend basically our president out here. The class was phenomenal! So much rich information, taught so well. I'm super excited. Other than that, not too much is going on. I'm part of our worship squad at chapel tomorrow morning, so pray our God will be praised...and that's about it. Sweet dreams and I'll leave you with a picture of the view from just outside our front door...beautiful!
