Warriors and No Homage for Home

Baba lived nearly 30 years in exile. Half of his life away from home. He left home with that bit of hope and good faith.

I let that sit in… 30 years away from home. I wonder of those 30 years, how much time was spent in a state of nostalgia… in a state of homesickness… in a state of guilt and confusion about leaving your motherland… in a state of subconsciously calculating a cost-benefit analysis of your sacrifices and gains to seek conviction for your decision to leave.
