Usually, living 1000+ miles away from my family is fine. I’m used to it at this point. But that doesn’t mean that it can’t bother me at times. I realized that this year, I’ll have spent about 3 weeks in MA in a calendar year—- not much time at all.
Which is why it’s always SO WONDERFUL when visitors come into town, and I can see family members and friends in Nashville. This lovely spring weekend that visitor was my Uncle Mark, one of my mom’s brothers. We spent lunch together this Saturday, and it reminded me of how nice it is to see familiar faces.
But seeing people from home also reaffirms the fact that I am supposed to be here, for some reason. I still don’t know what that is; I might never figure it out… but regardless, today, I feel sure that I’ve made the correct decisions in my life with regards to the college I’ve chosen and the traveling that I’ve done. I feel confident it will be worth it.
