Hello comrades, since a few months ago I started thinking about what is a homeland, and then I noticed that it is possible to find different kind of homelands, and then I decided that I must share this opinion with PMC, but I decided to make it something like the quote of the year but a little different:
For me, there are 4 kinds of homeland: The birthing one, the spiritual one, the inhabitating one and the ancestral one, everyone has all of htem, but not everyone have for each one a different land, if all your ancestors are 100% Mexican because they were indigenous, and you are Mexican and you never move to another country and your soul and culture is really Mexican and you were born in Mexico, Mexico would be at the same time the 4 types of homeland for you, but then, you can be born in Colombia, move to the US and accept it as a kind of homeland, have Spaniard ancestors but then identify culturally and spiritually a lot with another country, and if you visit that country and say that you're not from there anyone would get surprised of how much you look like if you were from that country and not from another, that would make you have 4 different countries as homelands, 1 per each type of homeland, under other contexts you can have 3 countries or territories because of some of the kinds repeating the same country, or you could have more than 1 spiritual homeland, the spiritual homeland is the only kind of homeland that can have multiple nations instead of only 1, and also the spiritual homeland or homelands are the most difficult type of homeland to find because if you want to discover your spiritual homeland or homelands, you need to know deeply all countries and explore them a lot and travel around the entire world, then that is how you'll discover what is/are your homeland(s), but you can still have a guess of what your spiritual homeland is by thinking what are your favorite countries in the world, then after you do, you can get ready to travel to those countries and see if they really are your spiritual homeland! Many people have moved to their spiritual homeland, an example is Paul Robeson, an Afro-American who moved in the 1930's to the Soviet Union and got in love with that country and became kinda patriotic towards Soviet Union, he found in Soviet Union the greatest equality in the world, and saw in communism a hope to save humanity, after this travel and realization, he stayed in the Soviet Union, he sang music, he translated Soviet Anthem to English, he learned more than 30 languages; this love from him towards Soviet Union even if his birthing homeland was the US, proves that he found in Soviet Union his spiritual homeland.
Finally, I'll end with inhabitating homelands, they are the country or land where you live, many migrants go every year to live to the US, and they get a good life there, making the US become their inhabitating homeland, and they are good with it because they live good, but still they'll miss their traditions, their friends, beloved ones and family, so that is a sign of how they love their birthing homeland but that due to struggles that their birthing homelands suffer everyday force them to leave all what they love and move to another land. Between all inhabitating homelands, the US is the one with more problems, they have a lack of real patriotism, they're kinda separated, US patriotism is in troubles and people are kinda disorganized as society, and then there's a huge population of foreigners, then discrimination grows as well as social problems, they'll blame the migrants then, and will try to get them out, then when they get it, they see their mistake they have made... One of the greatest problems with the US in social terms and as homeland, is that they have not exactly an own identity, even their name has not an own identity, because they just chose as name for their nation the same name as the continent, which makes them have a name with not an own identity, and due to that and Manifest Destiny, their love to "America" isn't exactly to their country, but towards a project of nation that proposes something that they will never reach, so that makes people get less excited and that can make them sad, decresing their patriotism and making them feel kinda empty because homeland is very important to humans; then society is polarized, the politics are polarized, they only have 2 main parties, other countries like Mexico have at least like 4 or 5 main parties, the people are polarized and not united, and there's also the fact that migrants are who have helped the US the most and some identify now as Americans, but the original US homeland consists in the original 13 Colonies that got independence from the British Empire, and then they expanded a lot, and that's the problem of expanding that much, the US got in war with Mexico in 1846, and they won it in 1848, gaining the 55% of Mexican territory from that time, then they bought a territory known as La Mesilla (Gadsden Purchase), and now there are many Mexican migrants in the land that was Mexican, and now many Mexicans in Mexico and those southern US lands identify themselves not with the US but with The Mexican Nation, which is a nationalist idea of forming again the First Mexican Empire, similar to Russian nostalgia for Soviet Union, but I won't explain here what is for me a nation and a country, then this thing about not identifying with the US is a problem because patriotism decreases, which makes people less united, bringing them to get bigger unstability.
After finished this message, I just wanna wish you all a very prosperous New Year and a happy New Year day and happy New Year's Eve!!! (yeah I said it kinda messy XD)
