There is more in looking back than in looking forward

Furthest back is a clouded memory of hectic preparations. Packing bags and boxes. Hurried kisses and hugs. Yellow robes of Buddhist Priests. Weeping faces and Buddhist Chants,and an emotion filled mornig climbing onto a van taking a child on my knee.

That was the morning of the day that I was to leave home perhaps never to come back.
