I know many people who live in the midwest, (and other places as well,)
who have never traveled outside of the state they live in,
or the county.

This country is large.
This country has many cultural differences,(flavors.) It has deserts, mountains,
wet places, salty water, fresh water, myriad combinations....all
within a few hundred miles of each other.

I was fortunate enough to have a mother who would pick up and move us kids
halfway/ the entire way across this place.

I wouldn't be who I am today if that had not happened.

Many languages are being spoken here.

I wish my fellow peoples,
would listen harder.
