Home is one of the fullest words in the English language. It gushes meaning and emotions. It wraps us up like our favorite blanket some moment and makes us so lonely and hollow the next moment that we are afraid to touch it. Home is.... well fill in the blank with the latest cliche'. Home is something that everyone desires, everyone has, and no one has.
Home is ultimately the core of our souls that needs filling- and fullness is literally heaven.
I hope for home. Pray for home. Have joy for the moments of home... and try to create home.
sigh. I believe that perpetual feeling "at home" is possible, but just as much (and we long just as hard) as for that Kingdom of Heaven on Earth.
Sarah, this is beautiful. As are you. :)
