What four months can do with you

Four and a half months since I left El Salvador. Two and a half months until I go there again. November rain in Sweden is suddenly so much easier to cope with.

These four months back in Sweden have been some of the most important months of my life. The organization Schools for the Future was founded. The project Reading for the Future developed from being just an idea in my head to becoming a real plan. This is actually going to happen! It is happening right now. The support we have gained so far keep strengthening our conviction that we are special. That this is important and that our dedication means everything. Dedication creates trust, which is both scary and fruitful at the same time. Scary because our promises means so much to so many, fruitful because people's trust in us forces us to constantly reach beyond limits and exceed these promises.

And during the next four months, what will happen? In mid March my next stay in El Salvador is coming to an end. The preparatory stages of the project have been successfully executed and we are ready to initiate the next phase which will take off for real in August 2009. I have also had the honour to serve as observer during the presidential elections in El Salvador. So, if the past four months have been some of the most important of my life, the next four will become even more important.
