【Chat with Prose】A Conversation with Travelers

"Looks like it's time to go."

For travelers, it’s hard to get used to staying in one place and want to leave. When moving, put all the belongings in the backpack and go to the unknown territory. To others, it sounds like this is the action of the free mind. The backpack is light, as if the life of these decades has been so simple and unconcerned.

"How can you just walk away easily?"

There is no relaxation, there is still some inner suffering, but it is a choice, everyone has the right to choose a lifestyle, choose a love relationship without commitment, choose to abandon a stable income, choose a home based on heaven and earth, and choose a humble meal. The desire to live, choose to carry all the necessities of life in one backpack.

"Can you stay?"

Or let me ask: Can we set off together?

▫️ Small talk

Wandering is too aimless to listen to, I like to call wandering moving. The entry and exit records on the passport were turned one page at a time. Later, I stopped collecting stamps and directly applied for express customs clearance to shorten the waiting time. Then I started to reduce my luggage. It’s best if I don’t check it in. Usually, I have to wait at the turntable for more than half an hour after customs clearance to get my checked luggage smoothly. I want to waste my time on more meaningful things.

In fact, the mood of each move is not easy, after all, it is an unknown territory, and tension and excitement are accompanied by a little anxiety. Positive and negative emotions are intertwined, but travel is a very healing process. Travel can lead to maximize the release of positive emotions, while negative emotions learn to coexist. Accept the expression of your emotions, and give them time to express them, and finally understand what your heart wants to say. Others always think that travelers are happy, no, travelers just learn to live with their emotions, and then try to accept each other to achieve mental balance.

"Singleness" is not forever. At some point, you wish to have someone you share with. You know that object is not just air, but a real person with flesh and blood. When you have a relationship, there are also ties. It is said that you can settle down after going out for a while, but perhaps the stability of a traveler never stays in one place, but pursues the emotional state of a soulmate.
