i recently returned from a week long trip home.......(farmland, michigan). When i lived in Detroit going home used to consist of 1 or 2 days about 3- 4 times a year. That time spent always felt rushed or forced and I was usually ready to go back to Detroit after one day. I felt bad about it, but i had a hard time mentally being present.
now that I've been living in Los Angeles for 9 months my trips home have changed. When i return I'm tuned in entirely and I slip away into a state of relaxation and contentment. I see things for what they are and I soak in every moment as it comes. Maybe it's because I am now thousands of miles away, but nonetheless, I can say going home is truly satisfying and fulfilling. I have a beautiful family and I am so proud of how far we've come. To put it simply, I'm happy to know I put a lot more quality into my family time!
