“You’re not from around here. Where are you from?”
Not my favorite question. How do you answer when you have lived in nine states, moving a total of 18 times? Do you give the whole list of places lived, only tell the latest one, or maybe the longest you stayed? Regions of the country?
I still haven’t figured it out. Usually people don’t want to know all the details; they simply want to know what makes you different.
Oh Lord, let my difference be You, not me.

Thanks! I don’t mean to write so few words, but my posts usually end up being very short!
