I thought the section commenting on the part of the process involving settling was very interesting. I think that is a great way to see the process come full circle. Not that the person is “healed,” but rather is self-aware of the process he or she has been engaging in and the purposes it has.
I guess if more and more of us will be moving frequently to foreign lands as the author states, we’ll really be going back to our roots. We were all nomads at one time. Maybe, somewhere deep inside of us, is the real yearning to return “home” to those roots.
