Leave Cleveland, but always come home

On New Year's night one conversation was extremely memorable. Out to eat with 20 of my closest friends at "The Rusty Nail" restaurant near Kent, Ohio, this conversation came to be. I met Brian and found out he is a student at Cleveland State. We spoke about Cleveland. He said "people always come back home to Cleveland after they leave". This is one thing everyone says and everyone knows they want deep in their heart. Yes, Chicago is thriving, New York City is big for almost anything, Arizona and Vegas are booming. But, you can go there, establish yourself, and your life may feel incomplete. It's the inner feeling, that love of Cleveland that makes you return to "home". Cleveland has that something special that you just can't find anywhere else. Cleveland has the best people. Cleveland has heart. Cleveland was built on industry, and it is building up momentum in new industries. These industries are technology, healthcare, fuels, chemicals, polymers, liquid crystals, banking, and law(amongst many others). The city hit a dry-spell but for every trough comes a peak, and vice versa. Lets believe in Cleveland and return to our long-awaited and deserved peak and prosperity.
