No Title Fits This Post

Too often in our lives, the various things we need for happiness and fulfillment don't quite mesh. We're left making choices which, while we feel they are the right ones, have an inevitable element of bittersweetness. We're left trying to balance the things we want need, the things we want need to do, the people we want need to be with. But there's never enough time. There are never enough dinners, coffee walks, breakfasts, movies, evenings spent running errands, or hugs. There never could be; those things could be infinite in supply and there would still not be enough.

The paths we feel a need to follow never have absolutely everything we want need, and we have the unhappy task of making the best of it.

Even though I'm driving away from this place and these people, I will never leave.

Well put. Good luck to your safety, your heart, your brains on this adventure over the next few days, as well as the coming months, years.
