Sad Indie Girl

Manhattan

I love New York City with my whole heart.  I've lived in a small town my whole life, and everyone I love is here.  I don't have any friends or family in New York, but something about that city just feels like home.  It's a place where I feel like I belong.  The crowds of people don't freak me out at all; they actually make me feel less alone.  The thousands of people remind me that I'm surrounded by people with lives, families, friends, hopes, and dreams of their own, and there are so many of them that my troubles seem minor in the grand scheme of things.  Every time I go back to New York it feels like catching my breath in a way I never have and never will anywhere else.  I love New York.
