Holidays

The trouble with a holiday is that it takes you out of your normal run of activities, opening up your world to the wider view, free from everyday restraints and concerns.  Thus freed from your regular self, new horizons and opportunities open up before your dazzled gaze and life takes on a new enthusiasm .  You encounter different places, streets, towns, scenery and countries anew and the experience makes you giddy and light-headed.

Worse still when you return home, trying to re-acclimatize yourself to your own world, somehow finding this favourite world lacklustre and dull,

It isn't, of course, but jaded eyes make it seem so and long-travel hours almost deprive you of the will to live.  Just wait a while, re-gather your energies, organise photos and travel memories and engage with future activities and plans and eventually all will be well.

And then, well, you can start looking forward to y our next holiday venture.

The excitement continues... I'm looking forward to revisiting Melbourne some day xxx
