So you must have heard that military personnel have to move every 9 months to 3 years right? No? Well, then I'll tell you about the struggles of moving a lot and leaving friends behind. Once you get used to the environment around you or you get language you are almost immediately moved to a different place and have to start on a fresh new page of your story. It’s almost annoying and odd. But the good side to this is that you get used to the environment much quicker and don’t struggle too much once you move to the new area.

Also, this is the only thing I really have but, I’m able to understand people a bit more clearly than others. It’s like I'm in that person’s personal life, just like reading an open book for me. It’s odd but I understand their pain, their suffering. But of course not every ending is a happy one, so it only makes sense when they are traumatized by what incidents they saw. I also had to go through some scary encounters as well. I shall not list any but that’s how I see or read people. But of course, it’s not always as clear since some have learned how to mask it all away. And for those who mask your pain; it’s okay, we all have gone through something at least. You’re not alone in this harsh and dark world. Heck, I try to read some of the teachers when they seem a bit off. So it can be anyone. Anyway, I'm getting off-topic.

Another thing about being a military brat or any other military branch kid is that you know we see more places than a normal kid would since they will know their friends since elementary school but we don’t have that luxury. We move around so much we only see each other once again or never. So we try to treasure those moments with our friends the best we can or just enjoy the time we have with them.

“So is that the struggles of a military child and your personal skills?” Yes, dear reader. I know I'm a bit choppy with the explanation but I believe you get the point. So I hope this wasn’t all confusing for you and enjoy the rest of your day!
