It's a wonderful phrase. Really, really good writing. (Oh! I see someone else liked it, too!)<br /><br />I have a lot to say, actually. It's strange, but I thought of you yesterday as I was driving home from wherever I was. I thought, "I need to write to Carolyn." And I don't even really know you very well. But I thought of you and wondered how you were doing and what you were doing. I imagined that you were having a difficult time adjusting to this big, flashy country of ours, and though I've never had to come home after living abroad, I do know what it's like to feel out of place. My suggestion to you is to try really hard to write about it, whether it's here or in your journal. I think working through everything with words will prove to be extremely therapeutic and helpful -- especially for you. So do it! Force yourself to write a little bit every day. Write until the words start flowing. They will come, and they will be a comfort to you.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18386565114862877592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6434822253556500066.post-81119450449215130902014-10-15T11:10:08.215-06:002014-10-15T11:10:08.215-06:00Thank you Anna--same heart.

We should sit and talk a while. Last time it left me with things to think about for two years.Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17575891383320251383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6434822253556500066.post-26503004217462847972014-10-15T10:36:42.417-06:002014-10-15T10:36:42.417-06:00What words are hooks that untangle it all!! Amazin...What words are hooks that untangle it all!! Amazing thought! Six year I've been home and maybe one hook untangled a few things but for now I still write to try and figure it out. I continue to think about it daily and EVERY TIME i go to the grocery store I feel guilty to be among so much food. If you ever need someone who doesn't believe in pretty bows to package up missions then come sit with me and talk a while.
