Indeed it does. Leaving things behind, well… that's our choice.

Ah, nomad friend! We are always going indeed. I write about this often too. But one post came to mind when I read yours, it's from after I was in New Orleans for a month and all the pieces started to come together (as they only can when you're someplace for awhile).

So check out this post: http://www.thecausemopolitan.com/terribly-lost-...

And keep on trucking on. Hope to cross paths one day.

I hope you know, Carl, how you inspire people. We have many journeys in life and healthy farewells are a part of them. The journey that you're on today make you more aware of that fact. I'm sure you're mastering the art of living in the present moment, too. Keep the wind at your back, man.

Excellent reminder. The “security” that most people seek is an illusion anyway.

Great poetry Carl!

Very inspiring. Life is not measured by what it you consume, it can only be valued by the contribution you make and the experiences you have.

It is hard to give up something you have now for the unknown and uncertain. However, it is in those moments of the greatest sacrifice that we grow the most as humans and as global citizens.

This is simply beautiful.. and inspiring. A most excellent reminder.. especially for the days when there is a sense of sorrow for leaving someone/thing behind.

Somedays loving the temporary is easier than others. But is our calling, and almost always wins out.
