Can you ever really go home again? I really don't think so...
You see, you've changed. They've stayed the same, but you've changed. And how do you really rectify that? You don't.
I have recently been following a Christian preacher who went back to the church after leaving it for 3 months. In this article, he makes several references to how things change while you're gone - not so much at 'home,' but rather within yourself. Being away changes your perspective and in essence changes who you are at your core.
That's what I like so much about travelling. I become a different person when I'm away. I am carefree and full of life. I like the person I become. The problem is that I come home and everything else has stayed the same.
After my upcoming vacation to my Caribbean island of bliss, how am I going to feel upon my return? Satisfied or unsatisfied? Will my thirst be quenched, or will I still be desperate for that which I seek to find? So many questions, yet only time can tell the answers...
