Song of my Returning
"Back in the world, I felt like a man that had come down from the rare atmosphere of a very high mountain. When I got to Louisville, I had already been up for four hours or so, and my day was getting on towards its noon, so to speak, but I found that everybody else was just getting up and having breakfast and going to work. And how strange it was to see people walking around as if they had something important to do, running after busses, reading the newspapers, lighting cigarettes.
How futile all their haste and anxiety seemed."

I'm back in NC for about 3 more weeks. There's, of course, a lot to be said, but I'm not entirely sure where to start. Feel free to ask questions, though.
