"Home Is Where The Heart Is"

Time for another blog. It's been a while but its something that kind of came to me. I'm not making a scientific breakthrough or anything but, its my post and I claim what I write. lol.

ok. I put the title of this blog "Home Is Where The Heart Is" because I found myself wanting and yearning to go home. A thought came to me.... what is it you ask? Stop begging, I'll tell you. How do you find home?

Sure, there is a feature on my GPS that I can push the 'Go Home' button and it'll give me turn by turn directions to get to said place. That's not the point though is it? Of course not. Too many times have I arrived to the destination and still have a whole missing where I'm left hurting in a way I didn't understand. I kept asking what was wrong with myself. It didn't hit me until I was driving one night with some people who are very dear to me. That old saying "Home Is Where The Heart Is" took a new and more purposeful meaning to it. I don't mean to say that I don't have a feeling of home with my parents here. Of course I do but its taken a different role. Now that I'm older, I'm different. As their son, I'll always have a piece of home in them. But, as a man, home means a whole lot more.

Home isn't only where the heart is. Home is where you heart, mind and (if you be it) soul is. Home is not a place rather than a feeling of true safety and trust. Home is a place where you can stand unguarded and not fear harm. Unfortunately, some people don't truly know the freeing feeling to come with having a home. Luckily for me, I've found such a place. I admit it's hard to get to sometimes but when I'm home I enjoy every single moment of it. Where is my home you might ask? Well, that's another blog in itself. All I'll say now is that there is absolutely no place like my home <3
