One of the weirdest things about existence, besides that we're all made of meat or that the entire universe will one day crumble into cold nothingness forever, is that we can only be one person. You can be the one who stayed in the village or the one who left the village for the big city, but you can't be both. You can be one who left the village but came back, or the one who goes back and forth between the city and the village, but those are different, a third and forth person, and whichever one you pick, you still only get to be one.
