Thoughts

Monday is fast approaching.
What is most intimadating for me at this moment is the thought of learning the language. There has never been the pressure before. I had never been in an non english speaking country for longer then 3 months... it just didn't matter. I learned a bit, it was fun and relaxed!
BUT NOW... there is some pressure. I am not there yet and I have this urgency in me that I have to learn.
My mom pointed out to me today that people have been doing this for a long time... moving to other countries where they knew no one and had no language and they made do. I was comforted by that thought... thinking that is right and I can do it as well in God!
Now my one question is... were they scared of that aspect as well? were they lonely when there was no one there to talk to?
Now, please don't worry as I know there are lots of ways for me to communicate whether it be to back home... or to other english speakers on base as I have been assured that some people know a good amount of English...
these are just thoughts, concerns and queries
