They always come back, but we don’t always answer.

About This Quote

When someone moves away for college they often send postcards or notes saying they are in a new place. They say that in the new place they are doing the same things they were in the old place doing. The same goes for people who have moved in with their partner in a new home. If you ask that person if he or she is happy with where they are living, that person will happily respond by saying that they are happy there.

No matter what, they know what it is like to be somewhere else and won’t settle for anything less than perfect. They always come back, but we don’t always answer.
