Dear All,

Okay, prepare for a total cheese post. I have missed you all! I have never been a real hard core member of the site in posts but always in the reading of them and responding with energy or thought....

I left 5 months ago to travel around the world, after having gotten some wonderful advice from so many on the site, thank you! It was the most wonderful time of my entire life and I loved every moment of it. Now I am back in Maryland where I grew up, where I have not lived for four years, trying to figure out what the hell Im doing with myself and my life and who I am after having figured it all out during my trip...and I am so lost and confused and unhappy and I hadnt been on this site since before I left really, and tonight just decided to come on....

I am rambling. Point is....I have issues with finding my "home". And coming on here tonight gave me the kind of comfort only places like home do. Although I am still a stranger to you all and to this site, I have missed the family. I would love to come back!

I don't find that cheesy. Sometimes I think I should spend less time at MW because I expect to find the rest of the world like this. But there's really only one place to find so many wonderful people all at once... this is it.

Sent you a PM.

Welcome back!
Always feel good coming home.
Tell us about your travels, where you went and what did you see?

Welcome home! although I wasn't here when you were. I think I got an addiction though.

Thank you all so much for your responses! Wakywitch, I went to England and Wales, then to Greece, Italy, Spain, France, then Thailand for a month in November and New Zealand for a month in december. The most beautiful places in the world, some of them! And England was so much fun, because I just adore old Arthurian Legend and the religious pagan history of the area....and I got to go to Glastonbury, and climb the "Tor" of avalon, and to the chalice well. And let me just tell anyone who is into all that stuff like I am that it was absolutely amazing!!! And the quaintest, sweetest town, just packed with pagan/wiccan/fantasy shops and its just the most unique place in the world. I loved it so much....and the people? The locals. Absolutely insane. This is the part of England where they brew the cider, which they call "Loopy Juice." They will only sell it by the half pint because believe me...those locals really do go loopy! They are so funny and so british and I tell ya, after just one drink damn near impossible to understand. I think French was easier to understand than that southern british accent. :) Anyways...just one of the many places, but each unique and beautiful and charming in their own ways.
Thanks again for the homecoming welcomes. Cant tell you what it means.
