You Can't Go Back....

Well I have been on vacation for the last couple of weeks, with my final destination being Key West. This is where it all started for Michael and I. Since his death I have not been back here having sold our home here last year. And while I have enjoyed it and have loved the warmth and sunshine I have realized that it no longer has the allure that it once did.

Like all places, change is a given and the Keys are no exception. It's still beautiful and very laid back, but it's different now. I was shocked to hear of some of the rumors that went around down here regarding Michaels death. But also very saddened by them.

I actually had even thought of buying another home here in the future, but I realized that I can't recapture what once was. And though I will always hold Key West dear to my heart it is now time to let go and move forward because as hard as you may try, you can't go back.

I am ready for my home in Chicago and what lies ahead for me. Coming back here I think was just what I needed to do. Is another love in the cards for me? I don't know. I would like to think so. Time will tell I guess.
