YES! YES! YES!
Would you be willing to do a guest post for my series on leaving? It could link back to this post, which just resonates with me right now. If you need more information you can go to this link…there is NO deadline. I’m just posting one story every Thursday as they come in. So there is no rush…

Thank you, MaDonna. I just couldn’t really relate to the “never being home again”: it’s too pessimistic and simply not true. I think we always can find that feeling of “home” somewhere, at some point. Longing for it for years and years is not healthy. I know people who have longed for it for 30 years just to find out that what they longed for was not existing anymore… And then they felt even worse because they realised that they spent 30 years of their lives “not living”, i.e. not appreciating what they had.
