I'll Be Home for Christmas

I love Jerusalem more than I can possibly explain.
The only people who know exactly how I feel about this place will only be living with me for 2 more hours. It's so heartbreaking to leave them because I know no one else will ever understand completely my love for this place and the experiences we've had here.
I feel like Israel is my home now, but I have another home in Utah and I know after the initial joy of getting home, after everyone stops asking me about my trip and when I'm left alone, I'll be homesick for Israel.
I don't want to leave, but I've learned all that I needed to learn in Jerusalem and it's time to go home.

This girl is coming home TONIGHT (Israel time). I'll see ya tomorrow.

  1. :( It is always so hard to leave some place that feels like home. That's exactly how Tim and I felt when we moved back home from North Dakota. I always said, "How is possible to feel home, when your heart wants to be in two places?" Eventually you'll readjust, but Israel will always have your heart.
