Stone by Stone...

Rozafa Fortress, Shkodra (2009)

We say, "Rome wasn't built in a day."

Albanians say, "Gur, gur behët mur."  Stone by stone the wall is built

One word at a time, we are learning the language.

One conversation at a time we learn another piece of this country's story.

One experience at a time, the eyes of our cultural understanding are opened a little bit more to see a bigger picture.

It takes time.  We might grow impatient but we are growing. And building our wall.
