NPA (No permanent address)

I used to consider myself and my family NPA or known as No Permanent Address. Since I was born until now that I am a lady, my family used to transfer from one place to another. It was very difficult for me at first because I found it very strange. I could hardly adjust in the past but as time went by, I learned to accept it and I got used to it. Somehow, I am hoping that it will never happen again in the future. Though, I am used to it already, I still want to have a permanent location, a house which i can call my own. Do you think it will still happen??? Hope so...

When you get married I am sure it will be different for you. You can stay in a house longer. My family and I did not move around all that much. I think I've lived in three different places with my family. Of course I myself have moved to and fro more then that, but this was after I turned 18 that I constantly moved about. I am a homebody and like to stick to the same place, my husband is the same way. We've not got a place of our own yet but when we do I am sure we will be staying there for as long as we can.

Home is where the heart is. Such a famous saying and i hope you have heard of it. Having a house with a permanent address is just a physical illusion. Being at home is being with the people you care and people who care for you : ) Look around. I hope where you are is the place you can call home. If it isn't, go look for it, everybody deserves their right to call a place home. Happy Mylotting: )

I hope that you will get your own home one day. It would be lovely if you got a long term address or a permanent address. I lived in a bungalow with my parents and older sister. We moved when I was two to a house. I bought my own little cottage when I was 19 years old. I kept it for 14 years and then bought the house I live in now. I have been away to university and traveled lots overseas. On my trip around the world I was away for more than one year.
