I caught a tiny bit of some self-improvement show on PBS last night, a woman talking about different emotional types. She was describing her "empath" type, which, hmm, sounded rather familiar, as did her "intellectual" type. (As a Gemini, I would be shocked if I ever fit into only one type.) Anyway, at one point she said, "Empaths always want to go home."
Well, that struck a chord. For years and years my reaction to a particular type of sadness (despair? discouragement? feeling like I can't be good enough?) has been a strong desire to go home. I say "I want to go home" out loud with some regularity, even whilst sitting in my own livingroom. This definitely does not refer to my childhood home. Instead, I think it's a desire for internal peace.
