When I was little, I got homesick very easily. Even being away from home for a few hours. Once I went away to college, the homesick feeling turned in to a weird uneasiness. Reminiscent of homesickness, but different, a little more disconcerting. Now that I am in my late twenties, these little anxieties have quietly fell away and I feel at ease most of the time. Lately, I have felt little tinges of that homesick feeling from my childhood. I realized that if I haven't seen my parents after a certain amount of time, I start missing them big time. Usually around the six month mark I notice the missing. It's tough being so far from family. I wish I could hop in my car, drive a small distance and then be in their house (which would most likely be blaring air conditioning). Only a month and half I will see them again, after a 9 month stretch.
This song knocked my socks off.
