Of course I wouldn't have known that it was a better question to ask, if I hadn't asked the original one in the first place would I?
Now what?
Not much changes, except that I, and potentially others, realize that we're not alone in feeling that way.
It's not like my life grinds to a halt when I experience bouts of feeling homesick and now, all of a sudden because I'm normal, it won't.
It's not like now I'm going to walk around singing "... gonna be a bright bright sun shiny day"
But maybe now, that I have additional perspectives about it, the experience will seem a little less pathological, a little less stupid in my mind. Maybe it's a little easier to understand where that feeling comes from, how to absorb it and not attach a reaction to it.
Or maybe we get to howl at the moon on occasion and not feel compelled at the moment to do a damn thing about it.
