Here is Zahed's story:

Homesick

I was born in Afghanistan, but I grew up in Iran. I had friends there. I played sports, and I had a good job.

I felt happy when I was with my family. I want to see my family happy all of the time.

Now I feel sad when I see that my family has problems. I feel angry when I think about all the problems in my country. I really feel bad.

Now I am in Canada. I am happy right now. But I feel homesick when I think about the past. I hope I have a good future here.
