to travel.

i love don miller.

this is true:
"everybody has to leave, everybody has to leave their home and come back again so they can love it again for all new reasons." - through painted deserts.

this, i think, is why i resonate with don miller. he speaks in riffs and choppy phrases, which concisely fit my though patterns.

i love to travel. and i frequently need to leave - to get away from the staleness of my everyday. it's almost painful to go back, and the LORD has even given me tears over it (praise Him.) i needed this week in the midwest with the morgans almost as much as i need to eat food. it's a different sort of food, travel. food for my soul.

and now i sit in an airplane (this tiny box with wings and motors...miracles!), listening to bon iver and death cab and just enjoying this familiarity and freedom. i feel independent when i travel, and i therefore find it addicting. i ache for change.
