It brings a loneliness to my gut, a hole into my everyday, worn heart. A soft itch, the knowledge that somewhere far away is the familiar.
Still, as I am away, I find the familiar isn't so hard to find after all.
It shows up everywhere I turn. In the corners of life.
And all the new, walking through woods and seeing the ocean and becoming familiar with the eyes of strangers,
all the new is good too.
It changes me, stretches me, and I feel like a tree gaining layers of time and wisdom. I go to new corners of the world, spaces I have never touched, places I have never seen
until now.
