Life is like a tightrope. I know, weird, but just finish reading this post, you'll understand.
Your walking a a tightrope. Not alone, God's there holding your hand. He's there balancing you. And if you let go, he'll stay and walk beside you. If you fall, there's always a way up. If a person helps you back up, catches you, or even if you climb a tree. There's a way, just keep looking. And once you get back up, you have God, you can tighten your grip on his hand. And when you reach the end, you'll have peace and joy forever. If you keep your hold on God and Jesus.
This came to me when I was praying one night at a conference this month. Ya'll are welcome to use it. :)

Some of my Thoughts
Ok so I know I've been not posting well, or even keeping my promises, I am super super sorry about that. I've just had so much school and other things going on, I forgot about my blog. I hope I haven't lost any readers in that time. Now today I felt like sharing my thoughts. Hope you enjoy :)
Being an mk can be tough. In the summer kids usually go to camp, hang out with friends everyday, or go do something for the day or weekend. Some mks do do that, but not me. I don't have any neighbors, camps are expensive, and I don't speak the language. Most of my day is texting my friends on the computer and reading. I'm always thinking about how it would be so cool if a girl my age who speaks English would come and move next door. That is possible, but it would be very rare. I have a best friend online, and a best friend who lives 10 mins away from me on a base, I can't go on very easily. I pray everyday, hoping to find a best friend right next to where I live.
Do you ever read those books, and you wish you had a life like a person in the book? Every book I've ever read, I've had that thought in my head at least two times. But those books aren't real, most people don't have lives like that. Nobody lives a perfect life. Many may think they are living perfectly, but no one is perfect. Only God is.
Where I live, I call it my home. But my sisters don't really call it their home, they rather be in the US. I love the USA and when i go there every 4 years, I love it. I have neighbors, foods that I can eat. It's amazing, but it's not my home. It's like a year vacation. My oldest sister is going to college this year, so it's going to be a big change to have only 4 people in the house. We're so used to moving so much, it will be a change for my sister to stay in one spot for so long. The longest we have stayed in one house was 3 years. We are similar to military kids, but instead we don't live on a base, and have English speaking neighbors, or American stores and restaurants. XD
I've had alot of trouble recently about finding what I'm really good at. Alot of people have those trouble. Some people find what their really good at very easily, and some take a long time. It is also hard for me to find out what I'm good at because the things I like, are hard to do here. Of course I'm not complaining, I love where I live, and I would never change it.
