Don't worry about a thing

I have always been obstinate about not taking other people's word for it.  So, I try things.  I have been acutely homesick, but it's hard to say what that really means.  I know that being in Newton would not help anything.  It would be more comfortable in some sense, but maybe no less lonely.  My parents' house doesn't work as home anymore; we've tried.  I tend to sit and take no steps toward what I want while I live there.  My parents have their own lives now and I think I need a new home eventually, maybe already.  I'm pretty sure though, that "parents' house" is the right kind of place, in that, it's a place where someone important to me is.
