I grew up in Colorado (southern for the first half of my childhood northern for the second half). It's been over two years since I've been back here (northern).
I wasn't married last time I was here, actually my (now) husband was meeting my family for the first time!
I LOVE Colorado. I always tell people geographically its the best place to live. But The strange thing is I don't think I'd ever live here again. There's less and less for me here. I moved almost 7 years ago and when I left I was leaving life as I knew it. My family, my best friends, my job, my church, the familiarity of roads, knowing where I was... Everything. Now I come back and there's almost nothing here except memories.
My immediate family moved, my friends moved (or we fell apart), and now just a few family members live here.
No one knows me here...
Isn't life weird?
I can't believe it's been so long since I moved. A COMPLETELY different person drive off for college nearly 7 years ago.
I think going through this last year has made me forget a lot of positive memories I had (which is sad to me) I'm trying to find some while I'm "home".
Nostalgia sets in- yet I am thankful for where God has me now.
