Emigration - it's painful!

I'm once again suffering the loss of a loved one who has left his home country. Two thirds of my kids are currently living overseas.

It hurts. I wish them all the best, I really do,  but it hurts, deep down inside. 

This isn't new and I'm far alone.

So, right now, I'm writing this in solidarity with all the other parents who feel like me. Gutted, worried and anxious.

The migrants who have come here have parents like me. Just saying.
