konstantine - SoCo

and you don't want to be here in the future
so you say : "the present's just a pleasant interruption to the past"

This line from Konstantine by Something Corporate has always meant a lot to me because I'm not someone to make plans way ahead of time. A day-to-day life is hard enough to work with, anyway. And when I try and plan out things, they tend not to work out. So better not try and expect, then there's no disappointment.

home is not a place, it's a feeling I lost a long time ago...


Andrew Largeman: You know that point in your life when you realize that the house that you grew up in isn't really your home anymore? All of the sudden even though you have some place where you can put your stuff that idea of home is gone.
Sam: I still feel at home in my house.
Andrew Largeman: You'll see when you move out it just sort of happens one day and it's just gone. And you can never get it back. It's like you get homesick for a place that doesn't exist. I mean it's like this rite of passage, you know. You won't have this feeling again until you create a new idea of home for yourself, you know, for you kids, for the family you start, it's like a cycle or something. I miss the idea of it. Maybe that's all family really is. A group of people who miss the same imaginary place.

This quote from Garden State is the exact feeling I have about "home". I'm in the state where I lost the whole thing and hope to recreate it some place else on my own or with some special one in a somewhat near future and it'll come full circle then. Maybe I'll feel a bit more complete then.
