Homesick

Feeling homesick is probably the worst feeling a nomad experiences. How can you feel homesick when you've really got no home to go back to? All the places I've been to have always had a tinge of sadness in it. I don't feel comfortable around people. I tremble when I talk to strangers. I can't be close to anyone. For years I've always been content being the outsider. The one who spends his time just listening. And everytime I listen to people, I learn nothing. I try to open my mind up. Still nothing. How can people get so excited over mundane things? I can't participate. It's just too mind numbing. I miss home. Wherever it is.

What make you feel this way? Would it because something happened in your life that affected the way you related with others? I just hope you can find people that you can relate and trust or a place where you can feel comfortable.

they say home is where the heart is. so for you to find your home, place your heart somewhere and make it stay there then if you have to leave again you'll have somewhere to return to

Trust me you are not alone in feeling this way. I too feel like this many times. I came from a big family & then one day one by one they passed away. My Uncle, My Aunt from cancer, 2 weeks later my Grandmother, another Uncle & then lastly my Mom. So although I have many good memories of what it's like to have a family & a home that's all they are, are just memories. I have never been good w/ people & other then my husband & siblings I pretty much keep to myself. So your not alone in feeling like this. The one thing that helps me get through each day is prayer. As long as you have God in your life, you'll always have a home.

What exactly do you think of when you think of home?
