Roots

I miss Taiwan.



But I'm not sure what I miss about it.

Sure, there's the food, the relatives, the shopping, the city lifestyle.

Most of the time, I'm so detached from it I don't think much about life there.
Last night I was browsing through TV and I came across a taiwanese movie.
Seeing the characters
the life they live
even if they are movie characters
makes me wonder,

what is it like if I lived there?

what would my life be like?

what would I be like?

will I make friends?

will I enjoy life?

will I find people like myself?

I find myself considering these possibilities, though very aware of the fact that I, am now very different to all the Taiwanese people out there.

There was a stage of my life, where I desperately wanted to regain my roots.

It seems, I am now at the other end of the spectrum, not worrying about what they are.


I am in limbo.
