a searing image

You’re in my mind baby Now and always
You’re in my mind baby Now and always
The road I'm walking Might fall away
You’re in my mind baby Now and always
~David Gray (Now and Always)

I realize that this song is about a person, but is it okay to feel this way about a place? I think that no matter what I end up doing in my life, Africa will always be a part of me. It will be with me wherever I go. The faces the land the experience has been burned in to my mind's eye, i now filter life through that burnt image, I just pray that it is something that doesn't blind me from seeing all of life.
