Ties that Bind
So I'm down to just over a week left before the big move. Yesterday a friend came over and helped me toss out much of what I own, but not before another friend came over and offered to take a good chunk of my stuff. So in other words, my apartment isn't empty yet, but it's gotten pretty bare. Next week almost everything that's left will go in one form or another, but what I'll miss the most will be the internet; I have to mail back the modem pretty soon.
I can't believe I'm actually leaving my home here in Japan. I can't believe that my father is more important to me than my life that I have built for myself. And yet, here we are. As much as I want to turn around and stay here in Japan, and oh, do I ever want to stay, the thought of turning my back on my ailing father is just reprehensible to me.
Family bonds are truly amazing. They can make you do some crazy things.

I can't believe there's just a week left. I was sure there were a few more. So then, this is it.
I know it might be quite hard to leave. I'm sure that it will be a beneficial experience for you, though. I learned firsthand that how a big life change like this can help you grow as a person. I hope that if I'm ever in your position, that I'll have as good an attitude about it as you.
I wish you nothing but the best. I look forward to talking to you and reading about your adventures here as well.
