He was sure of that, but unsure of what it all meant then and now.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He was there all those years in New Jersey helping three kids get through grade school then high school then college. Working to pay for it all. He raised Jersey kids which means they learned the art of slick sarcasm and thriving in a world where rapid talk and tough people are on every street corner.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">New Jersey\u2014it used to be his home. New Jersey\u2014so cool a place in so many ways not to mention aesthetically beautiful in Central Jersey though almost no one believes that who hasn\u2019t witnessed it. New Jersey &#8212; where he figured he might stay much longer than 23 years until, well, life changed so seven years ago he drove out of his Bernardsville, New Jersey neighborhood where his kids trick or treated and did everything else and that was the end. Picked up all the stuff and drove away seemingly forever.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gone. Close the door on one phase of life. Drive into another and see what happens.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moved to North Carolina to start over a new life. There wasn\u2019t time for much nostalgia not with finding a job on his agenda. So the interviews and rejections started pouring all over his body, mind and soul. New Jersey was no longer his life. It was just a place he used to live. Employment, that was all.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Things got better. The job thing got fixed. Moving to North Carolina felt like coming home because he went to college at Wake Forest University. He had come back to where his life had been formed as a misguided but idealistic undergraduate who found out there the value of learning. This all had a nice feeling to it in terms of a person\u2019s arc and trajectory and narrative while being alive.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He was back in Carolina.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, this morning and starting last night, he was back in Jersey.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We keep coming back, don\u2019t we? Or wish we could? And when it happens memories and images start to flash.<\/p>\n        <div class=\"booster-block booster-reactions-block\">\n            <div class=\"twp-reactions-icons\">\n                \n
