My Paradise

Yet again I find my summer coming to an end, though this time I am more appreciative of my hometown than ever before. It's a strange feeling to wake up after 15 years of living in the same place, only to really realize where you live. I'm sad at the thought of leaving here; I feel at peace here.

Maybe it's not about where I'll end up or where I have to be. Maybe it's more about loving where I am along the way. And maybe I spend too much time on other people to really appreciate being in one place at one time. I tend to get caught up in the he-said-she-said, the “Mellodrama”, as we like to call it.

I will miss it here immensely. But for now, maybe I'm just happy to be missing somewhere, and not someone.
