I had to share that I am shedding tears. This balance of seeking a life outside "home" and this displacement from home is something I constantly find myself in battle with. "homesickness".. is real and sometimes it's so difficult to hold on to and seek these everyday comforts. “I know that most of us, are displaced peoples (those of us who are seeking to make it outside of the places we call “home”); and if we are lucky, we live only miles away from our loved ones; others (not-so-lucky)”

This poem "The World's Greatest Magician" is my favorite because we too have struggled and sometimes continue to but we make way by being happy with what we have. Keep the good work up I know you will get far Gabriela,
