La Terminal For the first time ever while travelling I actually saw a movie I wanted to see. Ever since I first heard about "The Terminal" I have wanted to see it. Thankfully it was not dubbed.

The experience of the protagonist really made me forget my own travel anxiety. Heck, I am in a country not far from home where I speak the language.

Police looking for bribes, soldiers all over the place and teh ahrdships I have faced have made me uncomfortable but otherwise I am doing fine. At the time I first visited Mexico I usually felt like an outsider even in my own country, Now I have generally a lot more confidence but that means that the actual un-easiness of being a foreigner is more appearent.

I have made progess in feeling comfortable in my own skin in my native country- but it will only go so far- I still don't have exactly the same values and desires that make up the modern USAmerican character even though at my own roots and at the routs of the US of America I am eternally connected to my country. If I find myself living in one place or another will I ever grow into that place and belong? When my skin is what most makes me stand-out will I ever be comfortable in it?  ¶ 6:33 PM
