Nomad: A person with no fixed residence who roams about; a wanderer.
(Dictionary.com)
I've had over 2 years since my semi-permanent return to Singapore to grow some roots again, but somehow, as much as I love the country and stability it offers, I cannot say that I have great affnity for the people here, well apart from family and the close few, of course. I realised very quickly that after being absent from home for some time, people sort of grew up and moved on without you. It is this reason that I used to view friendships as a very fleeting and transitional element, well I still do, I suppose, to a certain extent. Human relationships are important and takes much effort to maintain.
I suppose I do need to eventually find some roots.
Somewhere, anywhere.
