True. Reminds me of the quote from the beautiful film "The Go-Between" by Joseph Losey which made a great impression on me (based on a book by LP Hartley). “The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there.”
I had this longing for many years after my mother died. I grew up in Berkeley California and for years I would visit Berkeley. And I finally realized I was hoping to see my mother come around the corner.

It is a beautiful quote! I love how the perception of time changes when you describe it as a place.

Thank you for sharing that. It's lovely that you had such a place to go back to, to remember and to mourn.
