Outside looking in

My uncle passed away today. It is a sad day but even sadder that i'm far away from my family, far away from my Mom. Times like this when I question my decision to live away from the people I love. Sometimes I feel like i've misplaced myself by leaving and life back home continue to move on without me. I can see them, I can hear their stories, their laughter, their woes but still I cannot touch any of them. I want to see and experience the world but I also want be at the side of the people that matter. My family, my friends, my home... I terribly miss them all. I want the best of both but I know I can only have one. I just hope when i'm done and finally ready to go back that it won't be too late.

Apologies for this gloomy blip and on a Sunday, again!

Here's hoping you all have a bright day.
