You see the world, attempt new things, meet new individuals, fall in love, visit astonishing sites, find out about different societies – then it’s done. Individuals dependably discuss leaving, however shouldn’t something be said about getting back home?
We discuss the hard parts while we’re away – discovering occupations, making genuine companions, remaining safe, learning social standards, misreading individuals you want to trust – however these are all parts you get past. These lows are eradicated by the total highs you encounter. The farewells are troublesome yet you know they are coming, particularly when you make the last stride of obtaining your plane ticket home. These miserable farewells are reinforced by the gathering with your family and companions you have envisioned in your mind since leaving in the firs place.
At that point you return home, have your reunions, spend your initial two weeks meeting with family and companions, make up for lost time, recount stories, think back, and so forth. You’re Hollywood for the initial couple of weeks back and it’s all new and energizing. And afterward it all fair… leaves. Everybody gets used to you being home, you’re not the new gleaming article any longer and the inquiries begin coming: So do you have a place to work yet? What’s your arrangement? Is it true that you are dating anybody? How does your 401k look for retirement?
Yet, the pitiful part is once you’ve done your mandatory visits for being away for a year; you’re sitting in your room and acknowledge nothing has changed. You’re happy everybody is upbeat and solid and yes, individuals have become new employments, sweethearts, engagements, and so on., yet some portion of you is shouting don’t you see the amount I have changed? Also, I don’t mean hair, weight, dress or whatever else that needs to do with appearance. I mean what’s happening within your head. The way your fantasies have transformed, they way you see individuals in an unexpected way, the manners you’re upbeat you lost, the new things that are imperative to you. You need everybody to perceive this and you need to share and talk about it, however there’s no real way to portray the way your soul develops when you abandon all that you know and compel yourself to utilize your mind in a genuine limit, not on a written test in school. You know you’re thinking distinctively in light of the fact that you encounter it each second of consistently inside your head, however how would you impart that to others?
You feel irate. You feel lost. You have minutes where you feel like it wasn’t justified, despite any potential benefits since nothing has changed except for then you feel like it’s the main thing you’ve done that is imperative since it changed everything. What is the answer for this side of voyaging? It resembles taking in an outside dialect that nobody around you talks so there is no real way to impart to them how you truly feel.
This is the reason once you’ve traveled interestingly all you need to do is leave once more. They call it the travel bug, in any case it’s the push to come back to a place where you are encompassed by individuals who talk an indistinguishable dialect from you. Not English or Spanish or Mandarin or Portuguese, but rather that dialect where others recognize what it resembles to leave, change, develop, encounter, learn, then go home again and feel more lost in the place where you grew up then you did in the most strange place you went by.
This is the hardest part about voyaging, and it’s the very motivation behind why we as a whole flee once more.
