Alternate Realities

My friend Josh and I have talked a lot about this. Alternate realities, that is. It's like there's so many different worlds out there, and when you move from one into another, it's hard for your mind and your heart to keep track.
Life in Switzerland has resumed. Nothing's really changed. And yet I am here, with five months of something big behind me. But everything feels so normal! I check my email, I listen to new CDs, I hang out with people, I get involved in ministry, blah blah blah.
Not to say I don't like that. But what's going to happen to those five months? Where did they even go? It feels like another lifetime ago.
It was only two weeks ago.
I miss the sense of discovery. Of wanting to figure things out. Of seeing daily progress. Of feeling useful.
I miss the smells, the heat, the sounds, the language.
But that's only when I start to remember. Because to be honest, life is back to "normal", and I tend to forget I was even there...
