Hi, both sentences are correct and mean the same?
the girl feels homesick because she is away from her family and home
the girl feels sad and misses her home
the girl feels homesick because she is away from her family and home
the girl feels sad and misses her home
Answers

Both are correct.
“The girl feels homesick because she is away from her family, and home.”
“The girl feels sad, and misses her home.”
They both mean the same, but the first sentence gives a reason why she feel sad.

@NeverForgottenOoO then, she is / feels homesick is the same as she misses her home, regardless of the motive?

You could see or feel (like emotionally) a little part of them.
You can get an understanding of them, but just a little bit.
(Newer meaning ^ sorry again)

Sorry, I just double checked in my head and online to give you the correct meaning down. (I wrote it in the comment before)
Sorry, again I should’ve just waited, and actually put more thought into it.
And what I meant by “feel” was like; not actually touching them, but through their aura and/or emotions.

I get it! You meant this phrase: “a part through you (your emotions) / the gist of you.
I got the phrase from a song of “smooth jazz”

Ohhhh, that song!
I saw it while I was looking it up, so I could try to get a better understanding of the phrase.
