My Guatemala

Have you ever had an un quenchable urge to be somewhere else? Felling like you need to pack up and leave because you a made to live somewhere else?
I belong in Guatemala. I feel quite homesick to be honest. Though people wonder how it is possible to be homesick for a country you don't live in, it is. I feel it. My gut wrenches and I feel so sick whenever I think about Guatemala and how I'm not there. I feel such a strong pull to that country it is un imaginable.
I miss the air, the smells, the amazing people there and the children. Oh the children. Their little faces ingrained in my mind. Burning like a flame just waiting to get more air, to be able to flare up and become a huge fire. I hear their voices calling and I can still feel their weight in my arms as I carry them around and love on them.
I don't know what to do with my life here. I need them. I need to be there for them.
