There’s no going back now
Mother of god, it’s snowing!!! Snow! I don’t know whether to laugh or cry! Laugh, because it feels like it’s been years since I’ve seen snow (Iraq doesn’t get much, who would’ve guessed?). Cry, because it means winter is finally here, officially or not, and now I’m going to really freeze my ass off. Argh!
I’ve definitely been going through this a lot since I got back, a series of “firsts”, just like when I left I went through a series of “lasts”. I may be even more emotional about it now than I was then. I didn’t understand then what I was leaving behind. I’m all too aware now of what I’ve got and how blessed I am to have it.
But snow! Argh!!!
later
