'Sometimes I wish I was in a career that kept me in one place, so I could cling to my family and friends forever. That they would be right next door. I'm thankful for FaceTime, and good cell service, for cheap hotels, and fast cars. To miss someone or something is a gift. And though I know I will always be in that place of nostalgia, it brings me joy instead of sadness.'
