There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth; not going all the way, and not starting. -Buddha
My mother, being the ever-curious woman that she is, asked me the most challenging question when I returned from France. She asked, "What weren't you prepared for?" I think she expected me to say something about the language, the cultural differences, a certain skill or expectation at school, but despite it being a difficult answer, without hesitation I responded, "Coming home."
