Saint George Island

I've seen prettier views,

Swam in bluer water,
Sunk my toes in softer whiter sand,
Stayed in more glamorous rooms,

Basked in more glorious sunsets,

Eaten better food

Still there is no place I feel more at peace.

It's the precious memories there that I own, 

Time spent with the most important people in my life

Mom, Dad, siblings, in-laws, husband, daughter, friends

Every time I cross that bridge I feel the tension release,

My temporary escape from the monotony and pressure.

I can never live there though,

It would surely kill all that I love about it. 

In or Out

Nothing kills you or completes you as certainly as committing yourself wholeheartedly.
