I was beginning to see the 3.(sight/soul) of the world clearly.

Despite loving the country, I had to leave in the end. So it was at that time that I made the 4.(effort/decision) to head west. When I finally arrived in San Marcos La Laguna, it seemed like a heaven. During my five-month stay there, I learned the 5.(value/effect) of teamwork and that we all came from somewhere with hopes for a better tomorrow. But most importantly, I was aware of my life and learned how to follow the 6.(suggestions/signs) that eventually lead me to my fulfillment. Because of this, I met my best friend Joe.It seemed that we were 7.(bound/able)to meet at that particular time and place.

Having been to several countries, I found that what started as an unpleasant beginning8.(turned out/came up) to be theadventure of a lifetime.Since then, I have helped people 9.(regain/realize) hope for a better tomorrow and spent time listening to the troubles of both the rich and the poor. It is true that I have not yet made the greater impact I first set out to do, but I do 10.(believe/guess) that I'm on the right track, and making a good start.
