“We all flee in hope of finding some ground of security”
-M.T. Anderson, The Kingdom on the Waves
It's not that I am running away, I am already long gone. My heart left this town a long time ago. As a 24 year-old college graduate, I should be able to talk about settling down and finding a nice guy without the feeling of nausea. It's not necessarily that a rootless existence is appealing to me, but rather one where I can start over.
I live in a college town, surrounded by the typical stereotypes but when I leave I know I will miss my hometown. I also know that I cannot wait to be so far, far away and all alone. So I am packing up the pup and we are moving far away. Where to? We will have to wait and see!
