Rome

People always talk about traveling.  They want to see Paris and Rome.  I have never desired to have that in my life.  I really want to stay in one place.  As a child, we moved often.  That meant that there was never a time when you could sit back and chew the fat with a childhood friend from Kindergarten.  You didn't have that type of history.  I longed for the life where you saw each other grow up and you could reminisce about the good old days.  I wanted to walk down a street at twenty five, that I walked down when I was five.  I wanted a community so familiar that I could move on to other things.  I didn't have to learn roads and names and places.  I could simply set up camp and live.  You don't realize how strange a place is until you have lived there for ten years and you still get lost.  I don't have many places like this in my life.  Seems like I have always lived..................in Rome.
