"And at the end of it he knew, and with the knowledge came the definite sense of new direction toward which he had long been groping, that the dark ancestral cave, the womb from which mankind emerged into the light, forever pulls one back --but that you can't go home again."

first sight, after sight: don't release me until it's over

ashliwood:

I thought I knew about nostalgia in its greatest form. I thought I knew about the art of missing things. I knew nothing. Like how desperately I’d miss things like the smell of my mother’s cooking, seeing her through the french glass doors as she smoked on the back porch reading some beat up paper…

My God this piece is so beautiful and true. Ashli Wood utters all these things I wish I could say. So much honesty in this piece. Check out her writing if you haven’t already!

In my own life, my desire has fought between a hunger for isolation, for getting away, for seeking new lands –and a desire for home, for permanence, for a piece of this earth fenced in and lived on and private to oneself, and for a person to love and possess.”
- Thomas Wolfe, in a letter to his editor Maxwell Perkins -

(Once again, Wolfe perfectly articulating the things that I always feel.)

WATCH AND LISTEN.
