The following sentences are taken from Brida, a novel by Paulo Coelho. I remember that when I read it, I thought about how painful and beautiful the feelings that Brida goes through. I imagined how one's heart could contain such intense and contradictory emotions. I have learned that it can.

Good to be back! I love the feeling of coming back to a faraway place.
