I'm going to try and describe the seemingly indescribable, if only for the sake of documenting a time in my life that I will surely look back on with a tenuous blend of bemusement and fondness in years to come.

selling the house? OY!!!!

I remember feeling the same way when I got back from Israel. Your entire life is in flux right now, and it's surely very strange, exciting, and bewildering.

Your trip sounds like it was so extremely fulfilling and nurturing and educational that I don't blame you for feeling like you might never experience anything like it again... because you won't! That's why it's so fantastic that you did it, innit? I mean seriously, look back in your journal. Holy fuck, you have been ridiculously overstimulated at every single turn, and how do you just pull yourself right back to reality? (if I may add an aside, I sleepwalked for a week and even locked myself out of the house when I got back from Israel, I was so used to just doing crazy-awesome stuff that my bed was foreign to me.)

Anyway, I hope you can come to appreciate your future prospects a bit more, because (as I'm sure you know) you have all the tools to make your surroundings more special and beautiful. :-**********

Coming back after such a wonderful experience is difficult. The way to deal with it is to think of coming home as the beginning of a new adventure. In this sense it is no different. We will cross paths with new people who are on their own quests for knowledge and experience. We will find out more about ourselves in the process. We will always get out exactly what we put in!

i can relate to the weird homecomng feeling ... after a life-changing year in quebec, when i got back i have this vivid memory of laying the table on my first evening home and just suddenly thinking woah thats the same fork as a year ago and this is all so familiar but ... i'm not. weird indeed. it took a while for everything to adjust.
