RE: Going back home
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I also feel nostalgic when we visit my mother's hometown in the province. However, unlike in your place, it doesn't have much change brought about by commercial establishments or infrastructure. What I missed was more of the feeling, the ambiance, the neighbors that migrated, the folks that have gone, the smell of the sea, and the area itself. When it's time to go back to the city, while on travel and seeing the scenic view on our way home, makes me shed tears.

Those things you mention, folks, the sea, ambiance, and so on is exactly what I mean, although my home town wasn't beside the sea. It's those things I miss...things which have been taken away by progress.
We really can't control change, we just have to live with it.
