“If we accept a home of our making, Familiar habit makes for indolence. We must prepare for parting and leave-taking Or else remain the slaves of permanence.” - Hermann Hesse

There are some of us who wonder if we’ll ever stop moving.

There are those of us who wonder why there’s never been a home.

We’ve chosen the harder path, listless souls doomed to roam.
