The word Home is a question rather than an answer , as it could be easily associated with all the other WH questions of life. Wiki's definition of Home is quite funny to read
"A home, or domicile, is a living space used as a permanent or semi-permanent residence for an individual, family, household or several families in a tribe."
If I were to ask to define Home, I am sure to get variety of answers, within myself :
Home could be the place I look forward to reach everyday, post office, school or play. Home is when I step out of the "living space" to go meet people, who are extended family. Home is clubs with speakers, Home is in the beaches, in the mountains, in the art , in the poetry, in the gym, in his/her arms . Home could also be the open green park with no fences, Home could be the deepest point in ocean, Home could very well be the ISS where the astronauts survive.
So when somebody asks you, when are you going Home, do you even stay put for a moment to think or just answer instantaneously pointing to a specified time on the watch without hesitation.
In this mystical journey of life, which is often fast paced, we forget to understand the true meaning of Home. We humans were never meant to stay in one place, we were expected to roam-travel-fly-swim. Having all this capability, why do we still want to go back to the physical space.
Hashtags such #ThisIWhereIBelong are no longer new, they are becoming the norm. We are slowly understanding the importance of finding home in every phase of our life. Home could be the ME time you find while stuck in the traffic jam. Home could be hospital bed when you are sick. Home could be soup when you are hungry.
Home has your deepest secrets, home knows your success, home knows your failure, home knows your temperament, home knows you in & out and let's You be Yourself.
HOME is the Balance we need in Life !
So next time, when you start to think about Home, do remember it could be a either be a10"x10" room or mansion. It is what you believe to be home, it is a state of mind !
As the saying goes : Home is where your heart is !
