Starting Over

Part of my Sunday PBS marathon was a repeat of Nova. The topic was hurricane Katrina which originally aired Tuesday night, the two year anniversary of the event. Later in the day was another one hour special that focused on several displaced families and their stories of return (well, only to gather personal treasures) and remembrance of family and the area culture.

That got me to wondering - what would it be like to start over. From the perspective that . . . one day, you simply walk away . . .

Perhaps packing a mid sized box with a few very personal items. Throw it in the car and drive away - no looking back - starting over.

That's kind of the point I feel at right now, too. Heh. Life is a strange yet captivating beast.
