Where is home?
They say home is where the heart is. So where is your heart? Are you lucky enough to be living in the place that you’ve also wanted to, or is your heart beckoned to somewhere else? Perhaps your soulmate lives elsewhere, and home is with him or her. Maybe the mysteries of Shri Lanka or the romance of Tuscany hold for you the promise of home. Where is your home? Why is it home? How did you get there, or how do you intend to get there? Where will you hang that “Home Sweet Home” plaque, and why that place?
Home is with my family, which happens to be in Colorado right now. But I also did a lot of investing when I was at Covenant, and I miss it there. I also am trying to put down roots here, and I am starting to think of it as home.
Before I moved here, I wanted to leave, get out, stretch my legs a little, test my wings. Now I want to go back to 'easy life' and be home again, where people love me and keep me company in the place where I live.
But I like the people I've gotten to know here, and like to be with them. I also like live trees, green grass, and palm trees. And beaches every few miles.
My home should be in heaven, since that is where my treasures ought to be, but to be honest, I haven't been laying up my treasures there lately. I haven't been thirsting to go home to heaven at all...just to go where it's easier than here. Sigh. This one is too self-revelatory, and that is all for now. What's the next meme I'm answering?
