A Startling Conclusion

I recently went on a trip to visit my family back in Alabama.  I had a wonderful time, and I really do miss it out there.  However, I realized something while I was out there that kind of surprised me.

While I really miss the South--the green, the southern accents, my family, the food--I felt this confirmation that I'm supposed to be in Laredo right now.  There are things about Laredo that I love, and I even missed it a little when I was telling my family about it.  For whatever reason, my family and I are supposed to be here.  This is my home for the moment, and it took me going "home" to realize it.  I hope to one day return to the land of my ancestors, but for now, Laredo is the right fit for me.  My family and I are happy here, and I really feel like this is where we're supposed to be, and we made the right decision in coming here.

However, I would love it if you could get some more of this, please.

oooh, how I miss the green and the tall trees!
