Memoir of Dawn

If I were to have a memoir of my life I would have to start it the day I "grew up".  When  was shipped off to a complete foreign area and expected to adapt NOW. When I first began to make a decisions that would not only effect my life but my "shipmates" lives as well. I was forced to adapt to a team and work with each other for one another. It would start in a room full of sweats, training bras, granny panties, gym shoes and spedo swimsuits. I was forced to surrender my belongs and to take immediate ownership of these specific items. Without say if I even wanted them. Well I believe this is where I surrendered my freedom to give to something more. Though with all my disagreements I learned who I was and what I stood for. Until this happened I'd have to say my past was just a swift breeze to reality and that I'm starting to understand where I stand in this huge picture called life. To relate this to Marji and her trials I believe we share the same light as growing up. Finding our place and where we need to be.
