Ok, so I’m the new girl to the group and don’t really know anyone. But so far, I feel like I’m already part of the family. I didn’t expect to fit into this group of people so well. Guess I shoulda expected the unexpected. But so far, we spent new years eve at downtown Disney walking around and going through stores. Frank said this trip had unknown twists to it. Everyone was given a cross to carry while we walked around and you would not believe all the stares we got. Disney’s security followed us around till we got in the parking lot, which gets you to think if I wasn’t carrying the cross would they have followed us? We saw women wearing head wraps which clearly said “I’m Muslim”, but no one followed them and said take it off. I’ve now realized how much Christian faith is criticized in such a “free” country. How “free” is this country when you can’t even walk around carrying a cross?

No matter where you are, who is around you, or what the circumstances are, will you always be ready to the reason for the hope that you have inside you?
