When you feel a sense of truly belonging?
I have given a lot of thought to this meaning in the past month that I have been in America. I visited Portland, worked from Los Angeles, saw friends for the first time in San Francisco.
From the things I missed at home in Lisbon, to the new places I saw that gave me goose bumps; the emotions I felt went beyond mere pleasure.
Although I have never been, and in some cases have never seen some places before, a sense of belonging for me equates to belonging in an extreme sense. Of deep sense of care, no matter if it is a person, an object, a place.
Being at peace, doing the best, achieving flow.
