Have you ever been somewhere that you have been dozens of times before, maybe even a hundred times, and all of a sudden it hits you that you just don't belong there anymore? You're with people you know, some that you care deeply for, but you now have bone deep knowledge that you need to move on?

Yes, it is happening now to me, the apartment of my mom where I grew up. I do not belong there anymore.

Yes, sometimes we grow out of a place I guess and need to move on.

Yes, I experienced that same feeling, too. Sometimes when I am alone in my room, I feel like I do not belong in there and I needed to go somewhere but I also do not know where to go to. The feeling is strange and I do not like it at all. It's not that I have been wandering from somewhere, it's just that I have the gut feeling that I must go out and leave.

That is a lot of self-awareness. I am sorry that it is troubling you. I feel for you.

Yes, I've been there. It's both sad and freeing at the same time.

OH God yes! I love my old home place but I realized I have grown out of the place. I have also grown out of "people" It feels like I do not need them anymore and they do not need me anymore. I am almost at that point now, time to move on.

Well, not really. But life is an adventure, sadly if I wanted to move anywhere across the globe I'll do it.

When the feeling comes to you that you need to move on. That that is what you need to do.

You're right. It was just so surprising since I had always felt so at home where I was.

Yes, it's only natural to move on from places and people.

Yes, but I don't think I knew that I needed to move on until I actually did. I looked back and realized that it had to be done. Even though I wish it had been done under better circumstances.
