The Final Stretch

Mom and the siblings are joining us in Jordan tomorrow- that means we're days away from being in Palestine.
I absolutley can't wait.
Jordan's been fun but I'm tired of all the family visits and meeting 68546757 relatives I've never in my life seen before but have to pretend to care about. that's mean... I know. I love my family,
just not all of them

I'm looking forward to being in the homeland. Walking in the footsteps of my father and mother- my grandfather, and grandmother. I cant wait to go on the rooftop and watch the sunset over the mountaintops of my grandfather's house and drinking tea with my 50+ first cousins on my mothers side alone.
The air smells different there; the food tastes different there- everything is different there.

When everyone can make themsleves happy in a place and a time of unhappiness, you know your among the people that really love you and the place you belong.
