Home. Or am I?

As I unpacked after 8 days in gorgeous Turkey, I felt an overwhelming sense of sadness. For all the joy I felt, for what I have seen, and hope to see and feel again, and the possibility that I may not be able to. Of wanting to stay for an extended period of time, to experience it deeper, to know the people, and to know better the people I have met. Of wondering what else is out there that I have not seen or experienced, that may be as eye-opening an event as this trip has been. I'm sure there are many, some I am aware of and others, like this country, which I am unaware of and completely unprepared for. The beauty, the sights, the smells, the sounds. I will forever cherish what I have seen, and hope to be able to explain it in the next couple days when I write about the trip. I hope I can do it justice! For now, sleep...
