walk away.

There is something very special and irreplaceable that good friends, the comfort of your own home and space, and the love of a city hold. Waking up and knowing that you can get ready with ease, your things are where you want them and expect them to be, and you can move and function at your own pace; living for yourself, independently with your own happiness in mind.       Knowing that your favorite tea mug will be clean and where you left it last; everything has its place, a place that you chose for it to belong, it brings a simple and appreciated comfort.
      Finding that perfect group of people with whom you mesh with, can talk with and not feel judged, and who you can spend endless hours doing nothing in particular with and yet you still manage to share the best times, create the most incredible moments. They manage to become a part of your life, one that you love, one that makes you feel secure and comfortable and in your own element.
      Sometimes it takes walking away; spending some time away from this sense of comfort, this sense of stability, and to get a taste of being outside of your element, away from those people you love, that place that makes you feel safe, and that city that makes you feel happy- these things that make you feel special to have them, to see and feel the way in which you love and value these assets that are in your life - Sometimes it takes walking away to learn where it is that you want to stand.
