Changing Thoughts on "Back Home"

Surprisingly, my ideas have not really changed about the California Dream, or about the song "Back Home". I still feel that this song truly represents how I feel about the dream. It indicates that people leave their home and everything else in their life behind to try and make it better in the promising state of California. When they live in CA for a while, they realize that life is just as difficult, if not more difficult, in the place they moved to, only this time they have to start over in making friends and finding some one to love. The person realizes that they had been foolish in throwing their life away, which wasn't as bad as it seemed, in order to try and make their life better. They lost the chances to enjoy their life back at home. They didn't appreciate what they had before they left. This is what I think about the California Dream, and the song pretty much covers it all. While I was looking at the song, it only reinforced my decision for picking it as the song that I picked to write about.
