Sometimes… the best way to move into the unknown is to take familiar steps… small steps. We’re always going some place new… all the time. Familiar things just let us pretend that we aren’t moving into unfamiliar territory. You take those small familiar steps and you try to be honest not to live as if nothing has changed but still to go on with your life. But there are times when what you need is a piece of how things used to be.
Some people spend their lives hoping for something to happen that will change everything. They look for power…or love…or the answers to the biggest questions.
I think really what they’re looking for is another chance; some other way to lead another life where all the mistakes they’ve made would be erased…and they could just start over. Nothing bad has happened yet and all their possibilities are still infront of them.
People move through their lives sometimes without really thinking about where they’re going. Days pile up and they get sadder and lonelier without really knowing why they’re so sad or hot they got so lonely. Then something happens — they meet someone who looks a certain way or has something in their smile. Maybe that’s all that falling in love is — finding someone who makes you feel a little less alone.
Nothing really spectacular about it..
People come home for a lot of reasons. They come home to remember. They come home because they’ve got no place else to go. They come home when they’re beaten. They come home when they’re proud. They come home looking for a door out into the past, or a road out into the future. People come for a lot of reasons..but they always come home..to say goodbye.
