Back home? Or back from home?

Well, echoing NA and iSm, no "matter where you go, there you are" is a struggle I've had. And, yes, I admit it, I ran away to Virginia, I did. I was not happier, happier for the experiences I had, but I am also very happy to be home (home to CA anyway).

I do not think there is anything wrong with wanting or feeling a need to go back home to reconnect, and rediscover. After all, you can always make another move to a larger landscape (after setting up your HI retirement). Nothing wrong with traveling.

Seems to me your musing has many good points for going, and many good points for not going. Bottom line is, you gotta do what you gotta do, even if it is temporary for 2, 3, 5 or 10 years.

Gotta say, I'm voting you stay in California because then I'd see more of you. Totally selfish, but there you have it, I am a selfish bitch.
