Update comming elsewhere.
"Maybe the definition of home is the place where you are never forgiven, so you may always belong there, bound by guilt. Ans maybe the cost of belonging is worth it."
..as pondered by The Wicked Witch of the West, formerly Elphaba in "Wicked" by Gregory Maguire.
The thing is, it's not. Guilt is never worth it. I moved out of my parent's house to come to Denton guilt free and have never really felt at home in any place since... well, I don't remember when I lost the feeling, really.
I'm still out here. I'm still reading along and trying to catch up with the people I've lost touch with. I hope you'll all forgive me. And at the same time, It doesn't bother me all that much if you just can't. There are only a few people to whom I can feel beholden and I've never been all that good at guilt.
