Circling home ..

In less than 12 hours we'll be on a flight to Sacramento.  Is it possible to feel like you're leaving home in order to go home?  That's what it feels like here.

Every time I return to Texas I feel as though I've come home to reclaim a part of myself. And every time I board the plane or train or point the car back West, I feel like I'm returning home to who I am now.

These feelings don't comprise two separate parts of me, they comprise the whole.

Goodbye, Texas, hello, until the next time ...
