I have been contemplating the upcoming family reunion greatly. While I greatly value the reunion and the family that is still in my homestate, I am not sure (with the increased prices of flights) if a long weekend in Maine is worth the expense. My employers are very likely to take an entire week off in late August/early September. I have decided to take this week to travel more extensively throughout the state. Missing the reunion pains me greatly, but being able to spend more than an afternoon with the family is worth the pains.
Also, with my parents moving it has been difficult emotionally for me. Even though I haven't lived at home in six years it has been my secure point, my emotional base. The understanding of "home" has come under questioning. Thankfully I am coming to the understanding that where ever it is that I am, that is home. My family, they are where they are living as well as trapped forever in my heart.
