Suddenly, I find myself homesick

...deeply, abidingly homesick. So much so that I'm overwhelmed and tearful. In the midst of the last bit of preparing to leave for a big kingdom event (I don't really have time to write this, but it's kinda hard to sew when I'm crying). it just snuck up and got me while I was unprepared and stressing over other things - other things that suddenly seemed so much less important.

Not so much homesick for the place, as it's changed almost beyond recognition since I moved away, but for those who fill that space. You are what makes that place home to me. I miss all of you who I grew up with, my extended family and chosen siblings. I would do anything right now just to see you in person for a while.

I love you guys, even if I'm so far away and busy with my own life that it seems I've given up on our mutual pasts.

You know who you are. I miss you, and I wish there was some way to see you mmore often than once every couple of years.
