nesting

∴

tonight i am catching the late bus to hometown.

this morning, i had a nice chat with good friend eleftheria and lovely lady lela about what i am going to do with my life. you see, i have been thinking for some time now to leave my flat and move with sis and best friend till autumn.

however, it's so difficult to make this particular decision. it's not that i feel attached to the material side of my apartment; it's that i just need a place to call home. especially, after years of living as wandering jew.

also, in a moment i so long for stability and balance.

for me home is somewhere i could run to when i feel the need to be alone. a nest to keep me warm and protected; where i can feel secure. a shelter i can just be myself, listen to my music and dance alone.

a place to have fun with my people.

making this decision feels like saying goodbye, again, to a part of my life i so need to keep alive.
