I just have to respond to your comment. You are not going to believe this. Since while we were gone, we didn’t have any music to listen to. We did this on purpose. It is crazy what songs go through your head and then stick. For weeks I had that same song going through my head. The weird thing is I have only heard it a few times. How ironic.

Now that I am back everything you said just resonates so strong with me. When I was traveling the whole time, I felt so strong, so confident. I felt like this is what I was made to do. I loved being gone and overseas. The people, the diversity, it was so energizing. The struggles, the simplicity of life, the learning from being so far from our comfort zone, the forcing of us to be flexible, oh how these things simply made me feel like I was in the center of my element.

Now, I am not sure how to translate that into living here. How do we become a pioneering radical who does not grow complacent with life? How do we know that we are living to our fullest and what does that look like? I have no idea and I am scared to try and figure out. I want so badly, to let these feelings and emotions stay. The strong urgency I have to be different and pioneer and adventure out I do not want them to fade or fizzle. I feel in many ways this will be a tuff transition, but one I am so willing to fight, in order that who I grew into last year, does not overcome me again.

I don’t know what to think, but this will be an interesting 6 month journey. If you have learned anything from your experience and could offer a searching man some advise, it is warmly welcomed.
