I lived in authoritarian atmosphere where I was expected to be adaptable, resilient, and cooperative. Growing up in a military family would turn out to be a very rewarding experience. Although, at times it was stressful and complicated with the many moves, the temporary friends, and being forced into different cultures every few years, I still found our way through the trials and became grateful for my upbringing. From the camaraderie in my communities to the secrets kept in my house, I would be bound together with other Military Brats by the lessons I learned and the skills I acquired. My experiences as a child would collide with the world outside of the military's borders.
