Random thoughts- Home

One short and sweet word... with many, many connotations.

So what really is 'Home'?

A place to come back to after a long, hard day,your feet hurting, your head spinning...and your most fervent desire- to hit the bed as soon as you can?

Or at other times, where everything you look at- is familiar, comfortable, inviting, and warm? And you know that even if you were to sleep-walk, you can make yourself that "oh so desperately needed" cup of tea or coffee ?

Or a place where you can curl up right into the most comfortable couch, put your feet up, and just settle back to an evening of your very 'personal' kind of music, movies, or start reading that particular book that you've wanted to read for the last 5 months, but just never got around to doing?

Or, where you are 'Queen', or as it may be, 'King' of your kitchen, and can rustle up just what you want to eat, in 15 mins flat?And do a jolly good job of it, as all the ingredients that you'll ever really need- are going to come right out- of your own refrigerator, or kitchen cupboard, or wherever else you chose put them away?

Or then again, where you grow your very own indoor /outdoor plants, from mere saplings, and can watch them grow into strong, happy, healthy greens. Ones that can be a source of unending delight, day after day, month after month, or even year after year....

Where every picture on every wall, or then again,every piece of crystal that you own, was acquired at a 'particular moment in time'- one that holds a very special place in a particular corner of your heart...

Or - where you can just be who you really are, with no need for any sort of pretence. So that you can wake up the next morning and be capable of continuing on your journey- the next day, the next month.....the next year......
