Now republished here....as a reminder....What becomes of those who choose to leave the familiar shores!!
Following is quote from my favorite shows, Northern Exposure about what happens to us when we leave home!! Thought, it would be inspiring for the new year!!
BERNARD STEVENS
As you may know, I spent the last three months in Africa. A wondrous, magical place. But as shadows lengthen across the KBHR window, thoughts turn to homecoming. Journey's end. Because in a sense, it's the coming back, the return which gives meaning to the going forth. We really don't know where we've been until we've come back to where we were. Only, where we were may not be as it was because of who we've become. Which is, after all, why we left.
