It’s been several years since I last visited the city where I grew up, and being back brings a flood of memories from the first two and a half decades I spent there. What was once a sleepy old city has transformed into a vibrant, lively place. Thanks to our current mayor, it’s now a small but bustling city, with new structures everywhere—from condominiums to commercial establishments. I used to see it as stagnant and unchanged for as long as I could remember, but now it’s full of energy, with people going about their lives in a much better way than before. The change has been remarkable, and it makes me happy to see it thriving. I wish I could live there again, though it feels like a distant dream now.

I visit the town I was born in almost every day.
It's funny how we go back to near where we were born

It’s nice to visit the place where you were born every now and then. But if you live close by, the sentimentality can fade since you can see it regularly. For me, being about eight hours away makes each visit special, and whenever I get the chance to go, a flood of memories comes rushing back.
