Everything I've ever hoped to see abroad I ended up finding home. It's just that I needed to experience something distant to appreciate what's nearby. There's nothing better than the sense of belonging, acceptance and understanding everything around you. It's comfort and safety. Just what my heart and soul need to focus. Differences are fascinating and travel does make you rich but I think the true milk and honey are hidden in plain sight. Chaos is good for art but coming in terms with your reality might help you to truly experience freedom of spirit. Not much of this post makes sense but I guess what I'm trying to get across is that we should stop looking and start seeing. I used to think that the world outside of me is the end goal, the desire but recently I came to the realisation that this way of thinking completely misses the point. My first big goal should be to contemplate my everyday surroundings and truly understand them. Balance is good, there must be a mixture of crazy and tamed in one's life for it to not be wasted and I think I've found my perfect recipe.
