Where do you belong?

I belong with my family.  Where they go, I will follow.  I also belong with my friends.  They make me feel like I belong with them.  I am American, and I feel a great tie with them.  Even though I have European blood in my veins, I would call myself an American, because I was born and raised here.  I feel that I am more American than European.  My family is Christian and so am I.  I definitely feel a tie toward the church and its people.  I do not belong in someplace where it is cold.  Even though I can withstand the temperature, I'd much rather prefer a warm place with mild temperatures.  I wear shorts all throughout the winter.  I like colder weather, but I don't belong in a place where it's cold.  I like the view and the feel of water.  You can't swim in places where it is cold, and I love to boat and love to swim.  It is very difficult to swim in water that is frozen or really cold.  The difference is having people that care and love you.  Friends and and family make all the difference in the world.  They give me hope and encouragement.  You belong in a place that you can call home.  If you don't have a place that you can call home, then how can you belong.  You need people that care for you, in order to make it through each day.
