Missing My Home.

Where are you from?
Are you living somewhere other then where you were born and raised?
I am.
And now I have have a deep desire to return to my home.

I grew up in the low country of South Carolina.
Close to the beach,not to far from the Smokey Mountains.
My home.
Now ,I have been living in Kentucky for 10 years.
Wonderful place,but not home.
Miss the ,I don't know ,everything.
The people,the trees,the humidity.
The feel and the air.

Are you displaced wanting to return to your humble beginnings?
I'm interested in your thoughts on this.

I am from there and now I am here.
I was where I was because I was there.
Now I am here because heres where I want to be.

I am jealous of you.I was there and now I'm here.
Now I wish I was there.

The reason why I bring this up is because I just watched
a movie,Dear John,and it featured alot of places I visited while down there.
Just feeling home sick,thats all.

I marvel every day, it helps smooth out the rough edges.

I'm an American, from a rural part of the country originally. I haven't lived in my homeland for over 20 years now. I see it often in my dreams.

I've had to live in lots of different places over the years. One thing I learned: When you grow to love -- really love -- the way a place looks at dawn, that means it's starting to become home for you.

I have too lived in many different places in the US,but my home always seems to beckon
for me.Can't seem to grow to love something other then were I came from.
Maybe Key West?

i’m a refugee and i’m very displaced. my heart is full of tears and cries. my home country is never the same anymore. many of my people live all over the world. genocide ravaged my country for centuries. i can’t live there, because it is not anymore what my heart is bleeding for. sometimes i’m a happy world citizen and sometimes i’m the loneliest of hermits.

go back to south california while you still can. just check it out. better to know than to whinge.

Yes, I am and have been for a while, living where I am not from. I enjoy my latest location, and pretty close to what I wanted way before I left the location. Last time I visited there I cried because it was not how it used to be in many ways. It is now only a memory.
