Identity sticks with you, you don't decide.
Can't run away from identity. Sticky identity...

“In Spanish añoranza comes from the verb añorar (to feel nostalgia),
which comes from the Catalan enyorar, itself derived from the Latin word
ignorare (to be unaware of, not know, not experience; to lack or miss),
In that etymological light nostalgia seems something like the pain of
ignorance, of not knowing. You are far away, and I don't know what has
become of you. My country is far away, and I don't know what is
happening there”
