I am in Tennessee. I absolutely hate it. The weather is always humid, no fresh breeze, the food is horrible. The attitudes are very ......let's just say its the south. The ony reason I am here is because I almost died and I thought if I was going to die, I wanted to be around my sibling. I lived. And coming here was a HUGE blunder. But it is my fault so I have to dig out from under my mistake. I have not made a lot of progress, but I maybe I will soon. Soon being a relative term.
I thought about that, and for personal reasons I know that it will never be the same. The city changes so quickly. Plus I ruined a good chunk of my life, and I'm still paying for it. At this point I guess I just have to concentrate on what I need to do now, and try and make better choices. The way you worded your sentence I take it, home has changed for you?
I have been flashed too many times to count. I have seen a man get on the train, take his shoes off and bite his toe nails. I have seen fights, laughing contests. I miss going home on the subway wearing a giant Sombrero after Cinco de Mayo. I miss the American West Indian Parade, aka Labor Day Parade. There is just so much to do. You never really miss home, until you can't get home.
I could tell you some stories. I'm from Brooklyn. I miss all the different people, cultures,food. I miss walking home, over the Brooklyn or Manhattan bridges, although the Manhattan bridge looks like it is still 1981. I miss my home.
Hi TTwistedRosee. I'm not from New York but I really like it. I've only been there 3 times for weddings in Manhattan Chinatown. I saw things this old cowboy had never seen before! :)
