“There’s something about arriving in new cities, wandering empty streets with no destination. I will never lose the love for the arriving, but I'm born to leave.” - Charlotte Eriksson

Decryption of quote

There’s something about arriving in new cities, that stirs the soul and ignites a sense of adventure within us. The thrill of stepping foot in a place unknown, with endless possibilities waiting to be discovered, is truly exhilarating. It's like turning the page of a new chapter in the book of life, eager to see what unfolds next.

Wandering empty streets with no destination allows us to embrace the beauty of spontaneity and the freedom to explore without constraints. It's in these moments of aimless wandering that we often stumble upon hidden gems and unexpected surprises that enrich our journey. The sense of serendipity that comes with wandering with no set path is truly magical.

I will never lose the love for the arriving, for the feeling of stepping off a plane or train and immersing myself in a new environment. The excitement of experiencing a new culture, trying new foods, and meeting new people is something that will always hold a special place in my heart. The joy of arrival is like a breath of fresh air, invigorating and full of promise.

But I'm born to leave. This realization that leaving is a part of the journey is bittersweet yet essential. It's the understanding that growth and transformation often come from stepping out of our comfort zones and embracing change. Just as the seasons change and the tides ebb and flow, so too must we move on to new horizons.

Leaving is not a sign of failure or loss, but rather a natural progression of our personal evolution. It's a reminder that life is a series of beginnings and endings, each one leading us closer to our true selves. The act of leaving allows us to reflect on the experiences we've had, the lessons we've learned, and the memories we've made.

It's in the leaving that we find the courage to let go of the familiar and embrace the unknown with open arms. It's a leap of faith, a leap into the unknown, trusting that the universe has a plan for us and that every goodbye is a stepping stone to a new hello. Leaving is not about abandoning what we love, but rather about honoring the journey and the growth that comes with it.

So, as we wander through life's empty streets and arrive in new cities, let us cherish both the joy of arrival and the wisdom of departure. Let us embrace the beauty of change and the excitement of new beginnings. For in the cycle of arriving and leaving, we find the true essence of our humanity and the endless possibilities that lie ahead.
