The Notion of Home
Home may represent a great deal of things.
The notion of a home is a physical state or condition—but it’s also a memory and a feeling.
Sometimes it’s temporary, conditional, and unstable—which warrants being left behind and forgotten—perhaps never again to be revisited or reimagined in the future.
Other times it’s safe, unconditional, and nurturing—somewhere safe to bestow and behold you.
Home consists of the places you’ve lived, places you’ve stayed, and places you’d like to go.
Certainly home embodies where you have been, where you are, and where you are headed.
But most of all, home is understanding that you have the capacity to grow and move forward as a person, all while grounding yourself in what anchors your inner child.
