There are no two separate journeys. It is all one and it has always been.
The journey "to" IS the journey "back".
Longer.....shorter.... the perception of duration has nothing to do with time. It has everything to do with whether your intended destination matches your soul's desire.

If the journey back is due to failure then the journey "going to" is longer! It's amazing how fast we get back to ground zero. However, the next "journey to" will be quicker than it was before.

It totally depends on the journey. In the last little while though, my journeys have happened rapidly, but coming back from them have been exceedingly long and longing.

I think this depends on the journey. It could truly seem longer either way, not long at all, or one way more than another.

"Back" assumes that you have already gone to somewhere and are now going back, so; it is twice as long as the journey "to" somewhere, beecause you double the distance you have traveled unless you made side trips along the way. But, you can't go "back" without having gone "forward" while you can go "forward" without going "back".

Depends on if you were having fun or not or if you are anxious to return. Going to war might suck but coming home might be grand. Going on Vacation could be wonderful and returning to work a total drag. It is all subjective.

Well a car trip is always shorter returning it seems. Maybe it's because you already know the route.
