“Not that she didn’t enjoy the holidays: but she always felt—and it was, perhaps, the measure of her peculiar happiness—a little relieved when they were over. Her normal life pleased her so well that she was half afraid to step out of its frame in case one day she should find herself unable to get back.”
– Jan Struther, Mrs. Miniver
And, I am back from my trip to Europe!
I used to have a New Yorker cartoon over my desk that read, “Vacations are the sorbets between courses of reality.”

That’s weird but I know that there are just people like that who don’t want to get out of their comfort zone. Usually people like that have a hard time moving on with life and solving problems along the way since they cannot imagine what their life would be outside of that comfort zone.
