I never thought that being from the south had an effect on me.
But recently I've learned that the south, the REAL SOUTH, not Washington DC or Maryland, the Pseudo Psouth, gives me a great deal of energy. The warmth or the air and the people give me a sense of belonging and connectedness. And don't mention the sweet tea, goodness! The taste alone is enough to keep you up for days.
No wonder there is a mass exodus back to the south. After graduation it's going to be very tempting to follow everyone else back down I-95 then I-85. Who knows, I could be in Charlotte, Atlanta, Memphis, or even Florida. Can't wait to see the next door God opens for me.
