Introduction

When I reflect on my period of living abroad, I recall a country characterized by organization and lawfulness. Although most of its people had lost their faith in God and lived far from spiritual values, I found peace and tranquility there. Life was consistent and orderly, with laws respected and strictly enforced. Everything operated smoothly, from traffic patterns to daily interactions. In this environment, I felt safe and secure; instead of feeling isolated, I felt like a part of a community striving to achieve its goals thoughtfully.

However, despite this calm, a mysterious sense of longing for home emerged—an urge to reconnect with the roots that tied me to my past. Sometimes, I wondered if this longing stemmed from the values in which I was raised or from the people I loved and missed. Over time, a powerful desire to return to my homeland was born, hoping to find the same safety and comfort I experienced abroad. I lived in a state of contradiction; despite external stability, internal feelings pushed me to seek my true identity.

The Experience of Living Abroad

Loss of Identity

During my time in that well-organized country, I sometimes felt an internal anxiety about my identity. While I lived in a place that provided me with safety and comfort, I missed the roots and values I was raised with. The culture was different, and it was difficult for me to feel like I belonged entirely. However, I realized that this difference was an opportunity to broaden my horizons and understand different cultures. I learned to view situations from new perspectives, which helped me develop myself and reassess my identity.

Social Relationships

Despite the absence of a shared faith, I found positive aspects in my relationships with others. Conversations often revolved around various topics, from literature and the arts to politics and science. I felt that I was learning a great deal from these individuals, and they influenced my way of thinking. Faith was not the only factor determining relationships; many human values brought us together. In those encounters, I discovered opportunities to exchange experiences and ideas, contributing to the establishment of deep and meaningful relationships.

Psychological Stability

Despite the challenges I faced, I was able to find psychological stability in my daily life. I engaged in sports and cultural activities, which enhanced my sense of belonging. These activities helped me express myself and alleviate the pressures I felt. During those times, I recognized that psychological stability was an essential part of my experience and that I was capable of facing challenges.

Returning Home

Longing and Reality

When I decided to return to my homeland, I had high hopes. I was eager to see my family and friends and to revisit places filled with beautiful memories. Yet, I also understood that reality might differ from my expectations. I had visions of what life would be like in my homeland, but I was uncertain about what I would encounter. This tension between longing and reality accompanied me throughout my journey home, as I considered all the small details that might have changed.

Expectations vs. Reality

Upon arriving at the airport, I was met with a mix of emotions. There was joy in seeing my homeland, but it quickly faded when I began to notice the chaos around me. Things seemed far from the order I had grown accustomed to, making me feel like I had returned to a strange place. It was challenging for me to grasp the gap between what I expected and what I saw. Those moments served as a shock, revealing that I needed to reevaluate my expectations and adapt to the new reality.

Initial Shock

As time passed, I began to face new shocks. The reactions of those around me reflected a reality different from what I had imagined. Feelings of indifference and chaos made me fear my inability to adapt. I felt as though I had returned to a bygone era, where things operated randomly. This struggle between nostalgia and reality impacted my psychological state.

Chaos at the Airport

Upon entering the airport, I was struck by the overwhelming chaos. Interactions lacked respect, and it was evident that there were issues with how things were managed.
