Home

hurraay february 2009 is here!!

I have beenthinking alot about a home. what qualifies a home? the dictionary lists a home as

1. a residence
2. a family group
3. a birthplace
4. a native habitat (Giggle)
5. a safe place
6. a place of assistance
7. a grave

what place can meet all these requirements.

the place i considered my home for years i recently has to move from. i have spent christmas at a different "home" three years in a row. and right now my family is kind of house sitting for another missionary until he comes back or for however long we need to stay here. i have a hard time calling this place my home because it is someone elses house. so what is a home? a grave? a habitat?

I think that a home is a place where you feel safe where you want to be. and i think that not everyone finds their home when their young i think that often times you get a temporary home unti you get you real home. and then for christians we eventually move to our permanent home with Jesus and in a way all our homes are temporary. this might sound discouraging but to a girl who feels like she is constantly on the move like me it is a great comfort. to know that it won't always be like this is nice.

my definition of home

Home: a safe place where you can always go where everything is alright. a place of comfort. with the ones you love. perfect with imperfections that make it home. it's where you want to be.
