Post-Haiti Depression

I left the office on Wednesday feeling rather discouraged and depressed. I'm missing Haiti. This week, my first week back to work, has been one day after another of the same old same old.

I have realized that compared to Haiti "normal life" is a bit bland. The meaning behind my work lacks the meaning that was behind the work in Haiti. In Haiti things got done.  Not only did they get done there impact was immediate and significant.

We Turned This....

Mosquito, disease ridden mud and over flowing sewage pits that surrounded half of the Harvest Care Orphanage


Into This...


A play area where kids can climb during free time...
A clean space where even after a heavy rain... like shown above... kicking a ball and running is still possible.

I run a company. In fact I run companies...My life is by no means boring or without meaning. Before Haiti I would describe the work I do as exciting and fulfilling. Today, my description would be different.
I'm suffering from...Post-Haiti Depression
