alone

week sixteen part 1.
similarly to
this photo, I'm kind of standing on the brink of leaving home for another summer adventure very far away.
I know that I have wonderful experiences in both places, but it's the notion of leaving people, places, and getting caught up in the in-between feelings of loneliness.
I always seem to be someone who is always leaving, and sometimes it's fun and exciting, but there are so many times during my travels that I wish that my location was more stable. I wish that I could spend my summer hanging out with my boyfriend or my sister or the friends who I only see in between school and summer. Though I do long for that consistency, I could imagine I'd miss the adventures I find myself having elsewhere.
I'm very lucky to have the opportunities that I do to head out to california this summer, but I know that during my time there I will feel, as I often do, pangs of loneliness as I transition between home and camp that will make me feel alone.
