Homesickness
Have you ever felt homesick?
Perhaps you can remember feeling homesick as a child; the first time you stayed at your grandparents and missed your mum and dad so bad that your tummy ached.
Or perhaps you were at boarding school and longed to be at home; but once at home the feeling didn't necessarily go away and you just wanted to go back to school!
Sometimes adults experience homesickness as if a part of them is missing. These people change direction regularly, perhaps moving jobs, travelling or living abroad, and find they are frequently asked, “What are you searching for?” or to be told, “I hope you find what you’re looking for.” There is often no answer, just a nagging feeling of not belonging here, there or anywhere.
They just need to go ‘home’.
