Homesick

Every dreamer knows that it is entirely possible to be homesick for a place you’ve never been to, perhaps more homesick than for familiar ground. -Judith Thurman

Saturday morning adventures with my husband always leave me aching for more. In the car, with him, I just want to drive and drive. My heart literally craves this time by his side, just the two of us, exploring without a plan. I hunger for what is out there to see and do. It is as if my soul is mourning the unseen and undone. I need to go. I am homesick for a place I’ve never been. Sitting here, in this spot this morning, I wept.
