I'm affraid of when the reality that I'll most likely never see anyone from Boston again kicks in. Yeah it's all cool to say that i'll come back up here and visit and people will head down there to visit.... but the reality is we'll most likely just end up talking online and if we're lucky, see each other once a year when I fly back up north...

However, some people remained a consistant presence, one of my best examples being Brian the Vibe...when I was out there I felt so isolated and lonely because I had moved to this strange place where I had no one and I felt as if all of my heart and my life was back here. I didn't even have a computer, I used it at the library when I could. The phone calls and letters from the familiar friends I had back here just meant the world to me.
Yes, I did choose to come back and I've never regretted that decision, however I never regretted the decision to leave either, no matter what terrible things happened out there.
Massachusetts and Florida are just places..."home" to me is more of the feeling you get when you're around people you love. No, maybe you won't ever see some of these people again and yet maybe you will. Maybe your bond will grow stronger with the distance with some people. I was allowed to connect better with some people because of the distance because I was no longer afraid to just be myself and tell them exactly how I felt all of the time.
You carry your truest bonds with you for your entire life and they are unbreakable. There are certain people who I haven't seen in so many years and maybe I'll never physically see them again but I can still feel the connection between us and I know that they do as well.
Don't be scared, it's just a new adventure...
