Tonight I was feeling a little down on myself. Nothing major, just feeling slightly--inadequate. Along with this came feelings of "homesickness". As much as I have moved around, "home" isn't really a place for me although Wisconsin is becoming so. "Home" for the most part has been that place in the middle of close friends. The kind that are so close you are convinced you knew them in an earlier life and in this one...they are more like sisters. I haven't been "home" in over a year. To stave off the homesickness I begin reviewing pictures of our last trip together. Road trip from SF to the Grand Canyon. Most years we leave the country but I couldn't afford it with the my final year of graduate studies upon me so instead they compromised to stay stateside...so I could go. It doesn't seem to matter the destination. Every year this is our time to catch up on each other's lives. To offer love, comfort, advice, or good laughs. I learn so much from these women in our 7-16 days living out of our suitcases together. I have crossed so many things off "my list" traveling with them. I love them each so much. I consider these relationships among my greatest blessings.
