I have learned to take things one day at a time.

my sister is in TFA in Camden NJ. She loves it but echos these thoughts almost every time I speak with her. She has a great corps and has enjoyed her time. It seems like a great way to give back, but I don't think I could do it.

If you would like I can pass your info on to her if you pm. She's always happy to talk to potential TFA'ers
