Chris North in Dominican Republic: "Maybe there is a lesson to be learned from these people"
"We in America have so much and want more and are miserable because we don't have what we want. The Dominican people have so little and are so grateful for what they do have. Maybe there is a lesson to be learned from these people."
Those are the words of Chris North. She's back in Dominican Republic. The Ada Icon has permission to link to her blog, which shows photos and tells about the experiences of her present trip.

North is Director of Communication Studies Program at Ohio Northern University.
