What Brings

What brings a tear of joy to your eye?

The thing that brings tears of joy to my eyes is when I watch a movie that is based on a true story and that I can relate to. Inspiring stories are worth watching or listening to, and hopefully, they help people understand that one day, they too will have a marvelous story to tell and could be inspiring to others, and some will find ways to relate.

Well, The Furthest

Share a story about the furthest you’ve ever traveled from home.

The furthest I have ever traveled away from home started when I was ten and a half years old. I was born in Cameroon, West Africa. I moved to the state of Florida, and I didn’t know any English; I only spoke French. My parents won the green card in 1998 in Switzerland. That’s how I became an American in just 3 months. I have been living in the USA since March 14, 2006. I moved out of my family home at 19; I have been on my own since. I got hired with the airlines at 21, and I have lived in Houston, Texas, for 2.5 years, and I have been in Virginia for 5.5 years. September 22 will make it 8 total years for me in aviation. I have traveled to 37 countries, and the furthest of those countries are Beijing, China, and Capetown, South Africa, directly out of Washington D.C., IAD airport. I have also been to Jordan, etc. The journey is still going. May God keep leading my steps and yours too on this journey of living and seeing more of the world! God bless! -CM

My Ideal Home..

What does your ideal home look like?

My ideal home is quite complex because I would like to have a condo in the city and then have a family home in the countryside where my future children can learn the value of life and hard work. I would like to have a lot of land to cultivate and a few animals to keep the kids entertained. Next to the family home, I would build my children’s small-sized home so that from the age of 13, they can start learning the value of cleanliness, responsibilities, and the importance of wants and needs. As for the family home, I don’t know how big I would want it, but I would like it to have large windows and doors. I love a lot of light with minimal furniture. Maybe six bedrooms, God willing. I have faith in my future husband, darling, can we… -CM 😊

The last Thing

What was the last thing you searched for online? Why were you looking for it?

The last thing I searched online today was about my ex-boyfriend, Linkin, from Barcelona. I wanted to see if he had found a new job yet since he had told me that his company was cutting back on some employees and he was one of them. Although I have cut off communication with him, I still wanted to make sure he was okay and had found a new job. But it looks like he is still with his old company for now. I thought it was kind of important to check because we were friends before entering into a relationship and were still okay, from a long distance. The keyword to that was friends. -CM

Find Me Here

What strategies do you use to maintain your health and well-being?

Lately, the strategy I have been using to maintain my health and well-being has been taking long walks and listening to music to retain my peace of mind and collect my thoughts. I always seem to be searching for answers and finding them on those long walks, in a beneficial way rather than a stressful one. I am starting over again, alcohol-free, with great hope and understanding. -CM
