Somehow i have for house keys on my key ring, all of which I have used within the past month and are in different cities. I have not had a consistent place to call home since I was 17 years old, but I would not have it any other way. It is hard, but I have accepted it. I love traveling and hope to travel through out my life. No matter where I go, I will always have my family and friends but it will be difficult because I do not know where to call home. The Word says this is not my home, but rather heaven is, since I am heaven bound. I have best friends from every stage and place in my life and have stayed in different places for significant amounts of time, but the only consistence presence in my life is God. Even thought it is hard when my friends and family, whom I love, can not relate to or understand me, I know I am not alone, because God is always with me and he knows what I am feeling and knows how to encourage me.
I have learned great lessons about life, love, family, and faith that many people don't learn until later in life.
I am part of a family that is greater than blood. No matter where i go I have family. It is hard having some of my things at my mom's house and living in another, but I have learned material things don't matter. Since graduating high school I have come to realize how insignificant things are.
Traveling to third-world countries have really changed my perspective on life and what is really important. In Zimbabwe the people there had nothing, yet they had so much faith and had smiles on their faces. I saw real faith there and learned that it's not about things but people. As long as I have people I love and people who love me, things will be fine.
One major thing I learned in the past four years was this: it's about loving God and loving others. If you're doing both, everything will be taken care of.
