| I am going to answer both the diversity and adversity questions.
As far as racial diversity, it has been hard for me. I am not racist, but I have been brought up in a small town with 70% white people, 28% hispanic, and like 2% black people. I feel at home around hispanics, because I live with so many. The one family of black people that live in our town are more white than black (metaphorically speaking), so when I come across someone with a different dialect ( my moms boss is black. he has a heavy southern accent, and his voice rolls like thunder) I get a little antsy. I am not racist, I am just not used to other cultures, and so it is hard for me to meet people of other cultures. Anyways, how is that for honesty?
Ok, now for the question intended. I used to be the loud mouthed ADD kid that wouldn't shut up and wouldn't sit still. I would always try my hardest to be right and get my way. I have went through a lot (to much to explain here) since my early childhood, and I am an altogether different person now. Partially from my training in the martial arts, but mostly because of how Jesus has affected my spirit. I can say with honesty that I can handle pretty much any situation you throw at me, because in all my years (slight sarcasm) I have already experienced most of it.
