I can't speak for other people but when you grow up in the military, then your Dad is a bit of a wanderer, then you join, serve 10 years and do some wandering when you get out, well you tend to see and do things. I remember how amazed I used to be when I'd meet someone who "claimed" to have never been out of the immediate area where they grew up. My step mom was that way. She was born in Howard City, Mi. Got married and moved to Greenville, MI (maybe 20 miles). Got divorced, got a job and moved to Grand Rapids, Mi (about 20 miles) where she still lives. The farthest this woman has been in her life, is Chicago, Ill or Detroit, Mi both about 150-200 miles. Now that is amazing to me!!! I understand that some people lie about their lives on the internet but that doesn't mean that everyone has. I thought that I had traveled until I met some of the people here! Some people have actually lived life and some people have spent their lives in a cubicle. |
