It's been the longest two months of my life. Three if you count June.
I had other strange Korean things list, but I'll do that later. It's 3:15 am here in Seoul, fyi. I'm still at work, fyi. And I wish with all my might that I was back in the US, whatever job I'd have at this point. Probably the same ADA position in Savannah, trying to get back to Atl, maybe weaseling my way into a Solicitor General's Office in the Atl metro area.
I signed a 24 month contract, and I've completed 2 of those 24 months. But I feel like it should be more than that. I am so tired. I am so lonely and often heartbroken. And as he inches away, the chasm in my heart grows. I kept telling myself that I need to wait it out, give it a fair chance, but I keep wondering, still, if I've made a prudent choice. Did I allow myself to be wooed by the siren call of a biglaw job, the title of an "international" lawyer? Perhaps. Is 2 months long enough, fair enough for me to judge the situation? Or need I wait a few more months before I make up my mind?
I've accepted long ago that I'll never have a true home on this earth. Since then, more recently, I've longed for a home of a different kind, something, someone, to anchor me to a location, to give me a reason to stay instead of flitting away to the next destination. I'm just so tired, and I think if my heart had a home, it won't be so bad that my body doesn't have a home.
