Brad, Here is where we part the ways. You are totally Christian in your lack of a sense of place.(whether you truly be Christian or not. That is not an accusation but a statement of style) This is the Eternal Traveler of Marcel, the nomad forever, the Gypsy on the road. The battle between the Traveling Irish of TooGood who is angry with her child and so beats him in her Mercedes SUV. I believe you need to be more tolerant. There are spiritualities like Judaism and Islam that are based in place and there are others like Buddhism and Christianity that are not. Some people are Nomads and must wander forever and others must put their feet in the ground. To deny one or the other the centering of their existence is to create eternal hell for either. What is one man's good works is another's arrogance whether they see it or not.
Does God's little acre truly travel? I wonder? Not for me. That is why we die so easily in prison.
