So there that is.
- You know that point in your life when you realise the house you grew up in isn't really your home anymore? All of a sudden even though you have some place where you put your shit, that idea of home is gone.
- I still feel at home in my house.
- You'll see one day when you move out, it just sort of happens one day and it's gone. You feel like you can never get it back. It's like you feel homesick for a place that doesn't even exist. Maybe it's like this rite of passage, y'know? You won't ever have this feeling again until you create a new idea of home for yourself, you know, for... for your kids, for the family you start, it's like a cycle or something. I don't know, but I miss the idea of it, you know. Maybe that's all family really is. A group of people that miss the same imaginary place.
Garden State will always resonate. I swear to God. There are few films that strike a chord in me even half as much as this.
In other news, I have mad love for Parks & Recreation right now. Mad love. I always liked it and gradually fell for it more over the course of this season, but re-watching it? It's the only thing I can find lately that has the ability to make me completely switch off and stop thinking. It's such a gorgeous little pick me up of a show :) I'd highly recommend that anyone who didn't initially like it give it another shot. It's turned into something pretty unique, warm and well rounded. Surprisingly subtle, too. It's kind of a quiet show? I don't know, I just know that I find it exceedingly soothing to watch and it makes me smile, so.
