What could home be? Would it be a house, a street, a tree? Could you have more than one? Can anything be done? Could people be a home? Or would they be AT home? So many questions left unanswered. So many unanswered questions. I will answer with simple words. Those words might just fly like birds. Now, I hope you understand what I will try to say. Better buckle up. I hope you’re not gray. I hope you’re not sad. There’s no need to be mad. Now listen and hear what I say. A home is wherever you feel that you belong. It’s not just where you reside. It could be a simple place to stay. It is commonly so much more. So many think they are at home. It’s simply where they hide. A home is not always safe. Hopefully a home is where you feel safe. Home is where comfort is received. It will be at one point perceived. If you never receive comfort, faith, a feeling of belonging then you need a new home, You better go find another while it’s still daytime. Now don't misunderstand, I don’t mean “move away." I just mean “find a place where you can be happy all day.” You need a home, need a place where you can feel belonging. If you can’t find a happy place you just better keep looking.
