Dear America:

I've called you home my whole life, but it took living abroad to find such deep appreciation & love for you. The past 3 years I've left time & time again for exotic locations & every time I return you welcome me back with open arms.

It's the small things that make me happy when I visit. I am free to make the choice to drive as a Sunday driver or like a bat out of hell. Both have consequences, both I am free to choose. I can chose which craft store to go to, which Target location, even which state I shop in but I am free to choose. I can choose to have baked cheetos or good old fashioned calorie loaded cheetos. These are not life altering choices but I have them every time I come home to you.

So as I leave you again for my next adventure, I smile knowing you will be here when I return. Life isn't perfect here, but it's pretty darn close.
