New Orleans Girls Always Come Back

"She is a New Orleans girl and New Orleans girls never live anywhere else and even if they do, they always come back. That's just the way it is. To hell with no house, no car, no job, no prospects. This is where she belongs. And her mama lives here. End of discussion." -Chris Rose, The Times-Picayune

i looked up the meaning

"liberation; letting go"

i'd like to think these feelings prompted the dream

but it may have more to do with 

a sky diving video that

i had watched that day
