Back “home”

So I just reached and on my way home, or should I call it my house..

Believe it or not, I don’t feel a sense of familiarity here either 🤷‍♀️ i really don’t know what happened to me, but these three weeks felt sooooooooooo long like I spent a year abroad and now when I am back, I feel strange too … It is sad that I felt strange there, and now feeling strange here too..

Sort of feel sad and overwhelmed..

Funny, when i was at the airport, the call for prayer went on.. I thought to myself, I didn’t notice its absence when I was in Canada even though I have been hearing it my entire life, but it felt weird when it went on now, as if these three weeks were enough to get me used to not hearing it!

I haven’t even reached my house yet and don’t know what I will feel when I get back.. Probably shitty..

I feel like I have been through a washing machine and a dryer and just getting out all messed up .. or I feel like I have been walking on the street for so long under the sun and then went into a shopping center where it is cold, you know how weird that makes you feel? Not that the weather was entirely different (thank god it was not, or it would have been a whole lot more weirdness on a physical level too), but yeah definitely here the hotness is worse, more humidity and higher temps…

Other than this, going through the local airport was a walk in the park as compared to Toronto airport. Found my bag the minute I went out, and it is just everything was easy, I guess it is much smaller even though it felt so big and confusing when I was heading to Canada.

I have work tomorrow, and I have a funny feeling that my pcr results won’t be out because umm my flight reached really late and I just tried my best but what am I gonna do O.o I can’t wait to shower because I feel like I stink and that I am filled with germs.. I won’t be surprised if I tested positive after this dirty long ride…
I would have been surprised if it had been different.
@BittersweetPotato Yes. You have many reasons for feeling out of place, communication is flawed with your family, the emotional attachment to your mum was severed, your colleagues can hardly be called friends.
For now, home is a collection of things like music, people you know, food you enjoy, fictional characters from series, a lot of things you know well and that make you feel at peace.

@EarthlingWise I guess that makes sense but I guess I just assumed that I will feel some familiarity since i am back to the place where i know how things work and all … i feel like I am not free even though nothing particularly happened … dreading the next step..
@BittersweetPotato Don't feel like it's strange though. We are all strangers in this world.
