I am home now in the Singapore.When people ask if I'm happy to be home, I always say yes. I think I am, but I'm not entirely sure. I feel great joy about my two and a half years in Abu Dhabi. What I take away most from Abu Dhabi are the friendships. Not only did I make great friends in Abu Dhabi, but J and our children did too.
I will also never forget the beauty of the place. The emirate of Abu Dhabi is magnificent. I never grew tired of the flowers along the wide boulevards, nor the palm trees along the Gulf. But the desert is what I'm really talking about here. The seemingly endless rolling hills of sand, the dunes constantly being re-shaped by the wind, the powder-blue sky above the golden-tan landscape, and the surprising presence of animals, occasional flora and fauna, all made a deep impression on me. I felt both more serene and alive in the desert.
Will I ever return to Abu Dhabi? I don't know. But most of all, Abu Dhabi, my temporary home, touched my heart.
