They make you feel as though you are encircled by great cushy arms and protected from the hectic outside world. Today, I treasure that feeling.
Yesterday was a busy day. We attended a local baseball game with the family and friends, and I was astounded by the masses of people. The longer I live in this quiet rural town, the less comfortable I am in more urban areas. When I was younger, I thought I would yearn for that buzz and activity.... I loved visiting the larger cities that we could visit and take day trips to. As a teenager, I thought I would travel far to college and see so many things.
But now, I yearn for home and peace and quiet. We often feel so insolated from everything, living out here, and I cherish that feeling.
It is such a surprise...
