LoL. Do ya'll want to hear something pretty funny?
The therapist was born in xxxxxx city where she decided to move permanently now. She lived there until she was 2 years old and was raised in another country. When she got married, she moved back to the United States and worked in xxxxxx city for 14 years. She then moved to the city that I'm in - that is Chicago - and was here for 22 years. But she said that xxxxxx city still feels more like home to her even though she prefers the city of Chicago. She also said that she always had plans to retire in xxxxxx city, but it wasn't supposed to happen until a long time later - a time when I would be done with my work with her. She said that she wants to die in xxxxxx where she was born.
I asked her, if you were born in say Iraq or Russia, and only lived a week of your entire life in that country, would you want to die there? She said maybe. There's some superficial, existential symbolic meaning going on there.
