    Growing Up with My Role Model: Embracing Individuality

    When I was growing up, I wanted to be JUST like my big sister. She was smart, funny, and my best friend. There was no one in the world I wanted to be around more than her. I’d even go as far as saying I wanted to be her.

    Whenever we went shopping, I tried to make sure we looked like twins. I’d pick the same outfit she did in the same color, too.

    “Pick something else,” she’d say, and my little heart would break. Why did she get so upset that I wanted to be like her? Didn’t she understand that she was my favorite person in the whole world? I knew at such a young age, that no matter what happened, I’d be okay as long as she was there.

    My sweet big sister, my role model to this day. You have always been an inspiration and I’m grateful to God that I have you in my life. While the instruction to “pick something else” was hurtful to me then, I appreciate it now. It taught me the importance of having things “just for me.” I’m finding my interests, pursuing them, and having a blast!

    Thank you for being my role model, SiSTAR. I love you!

    Intro

    Hello,

    And welcome! For privacy purposes, I have decided to introduce myself as SlyFox11. I am a veteran and mother of two with plenty of stories to tell. I was told throughout the years that my life “is like a movie” which I interpreted as a compliment until recently. As 2024 reached it’s conclusion, I made the decision to share pieces of myself with the world. It is my belief that the experiences I’ve had will encourage others to pursue Christ with the knowledge that He is always with us, waiting with open arms, and a forgiving heart. So, who am I? I am a child of God. I am a daughter that was lost in the wilderness but I am found. I am fearfully and wonderfully made with all the flaws and imperfections I carry. I am a child of God; perfectly imperfect. All I ask from you, dear friend, is that you please call me Sly.
