When did I get so used to living here, without my memories, that it became normal for me?

I think it becomes normal for everyone at some point. Maybe, if you don't remember what you have to go back to, it's easier to settle into a new life.

I think a person can belong to more than one place in their lifetime. [He still can't find the words, or at least not the reason behind them, but he gives it a try anyway.] Circumstances can force people to adapt, but just because you can adapt doesn't mean you're abandoning anyone.

And... people move on. It means leaving something behind, but...
