the nature of home

by phyllisalyse

It has been said, “home is where the heart is” and this I believe is true. But, what could equally be claimed is that home is your very heart. Less a location to be found on a map or a structure of four walls but a spiritual state of heart. An essence that one carries with them that they can tap into at any given time. A center of peace and ‘rightness’ that can be touched, a source of comfort in any given moment, regardless of location. If that is the case, what do we then make of the address to which we claim our residence?
