RE: Living with them was what I wanted most
I think many emigrants and their descendants can understand these feelings well. Our roots still seem to play a major role in our happiness. Perhaps there will come a time when no one will migrate out of necessity anymore...
The inhabitants of my country have had to do what my parents did. It is not so much the pain of leaving a country but what is left behind.
For me, not having known my lineage has been an unconquered trauma.
Thank you for accepting my very personal participation.
