sameness and difference



slowly settling in.

simply going about my life here, in both its sameness and its difference from before. prioritizing connecting with a few good friends, slowly unpacking, eating nutritious food, making my home beautiful, dance class, running, going to concerts.

the other day i realized the biggest difference between then and now. before california and after. i was wandering on the railroad tracks, through a community garden on a solo adventure when i realized what wasn't there. loneliness. before i went away it was always there, wherever i went. over the last few years it got less powerful in my life but it was still there.

i don't miss it.

It's such a universal emotion..we can all relate.
But I am so glad you are finding more comfort now...maybe that means you have found your true *home*.
