Coming Back is Different Than Never Leaving
Returning means you made progress
Spirit, hold my hand and show me how to return to the things You know are best for me.
Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving. — Terry Pratchett
Have you ever gone on a trip to a country far, far away? When you returned, did you learn new things?
What about going to school — have you attended college? Did it help you unlearn some things and learn new things? Did people mention that you were different when you graduated?
What about leaving home for a job — did you take a job that took you away from the city that you lived in for quite a while? When you returned for a visit, did people mention that you were different?
What about you? Have you ever done something that was a clear exit of who you are? When you returned to yourself did you feel like you came back home?
Because coming back is different than never leaving. When you come back, it means you left and returned and there was progress and transformation.
