Journaling reads:
My own identity is so tightly knitted to “the last four” (digits of your sponsor’s social. natch.) I’ve nearly forgotten what my own social security number is. The last four is attached to every document, used to organize and categorize me in every way, in every circle and facet of military living. These numbers..those digits I can so easily and so readily recite...they have become symbols for how my own identity has changed as a military spouse dependent. I have let go of personal wants and wishes, moved near and far, nudged closely held ideologies, changed perceptions, accepted fresh ideas, and grown in uncomfortable ways in the name of The Last Four. These steps are not ones I would have dreamed of taking if dreams and plans were only up to me. And thank goodness they are not because God’s dreams and plans are far better than my own. And this melting, the fading in to someone else and in to The Last Four..turns out, it was the best thing that ever happened to me.
TFL!
