Stories Collected While Living in France
Going from home, one to the other.
Passing crops golden to a sea blue, following the long road while my thoughts unwind, divide, separate, gather, connect, holding me over space, time, through the goodbyes to the near future hello.
Twenty-two hours door to door.
The never-ending sky.
Changing light.
One heart beating, longing with a soft sadness, happy tears for everything, forever tucked close in my spirit's inner pocket.
I miss you already and ready to say hello.
Hi Corey,
I’m just home from 2 1/2 weeks in the States, but this time I didn’t go “home”, but met family members in Maine, on the beautiful coast.
I have to say, I appreciate the journey home (although this particular trip from the East Coast didn’t take as long as it would from Alaska or Chicago – my other two “homes”). The many hours give me a chance to switch gears and change my focus, to reflect.
I hope your ability to sleep in automobiles carries over to airplanes, that you can rest while *you* reflect, and perhaps snooze a little!
Thanks for sharing your life with us. Safe journey to you.
Bon Journey.
Safe travels home, Corey. I’m sorry we didn’t get to meet up this time. 🙁
22 hours? Wow! Can you sleep a lot during the flight? We’re not able to, alas, so need the next day to sleep off the monumental jet-lag.
Have a good flight Corey. Happy travels. Next time you come to SF, remember LA is only a one hour flight away. We have a new museum opening in September, The Broad, and it is stunning: http://www.thebroad.org/
And I think I know somewhere where there is an extra room. 🙂
Happy and safe travels. What a beautiful reflection (written and photo).
Nice photo of you:) Safe travel……S/E
Beautiful words about family and beautiful photographs!!
Happy travels and welcome home hugs.
What beautiful words you wrote and your reflection on the airplane glass, was moving and wistful!
