superficial life

I don't want to go home.
odd isn't it?? why wouldn't I want to be home, right? the abundent food, my church, my friends, my dog; they're all in the U.S.
so why don't I want to go home.
I'll tell you why;
going home means going back to superficial life.
going home is going back to stifling education. I appreciate my education; the thing is, I could do so much more with my life without it.
I don't want to be bound by anything but God and His will.
going home means being surrounded by
f a k e s .
I want to go to India.
I want to live somewhere exotic.
I wouldn't even mind being here; as long as I was doing what God wanted.
here life is so real!
everything is so in-your-face that you barely have time to think about it.
the boy no longer going to school because of fees;
the blind widow with HIV;
the heart of God;
all of it is here.
going home is going back to unhappiness; lonliness; monotonousness; and fakeness.
now tell me;
who wants to go anywhere like that?
S U R P R I S E .
you're living in it.
