Homesickness is nothing Fifty percent of the people in the world are homesick all the time.

Homesickness is nothing. Fifty percent of the people in the world are homesick all the time.

Maybe you had to leave in order to really miss a place; maybe you had to travel to figure out how beloved your starting point was.

Homesickness is. . . absolutely nothing. Fifty percent of the people in the world are homesick all the time. You don't really long for another country. You long for something in yourself that you don't have, or haven't been able to find.

After about a month, the aches and pains are gone, but then the homesickness starts to set in. You've seen enough beautiful scenery, and now you just get up every day and trudge on.

I used to think it was mere homesickness, then I started getting it at home.
