Home is where my writing and I reside. Nice quotes ๐
You guys are lucky to have one another ๐
And we’re lucky that your relationship with your writing has produced so many lovely children!

Lol. Thanks so much, David. We are proud of them. (Mostly) ๐
well… there will always be a few bad nuts ๐ฐ
I gain insight from these ideas of “home,” David, as any thinkers who dwell on them must. I published some of these, among others, in a 2015 post, perhaps my favorite being T.S. Eliot’s, “and at the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.” Eliot also wrote “Home is where one starts from” (which I used in the title of the post). For myself, “home” answers all the big questions, such as, Where’d I hang the kippah I wear under the Stetson in this sentence. ๐
Home sweet home
No antelope play
There are deer
I came across those quotes too… I’m considering making another post with quotes about home ๐
Feelings range widely;
Kind words beneath clear blue skies
Encourage me home
Basho sums it up for me. That said, too many are on an enforced journey theses days…(k)

Thank you David for these beautiful and inspiring quotes! ๐
One of your posts inspired me ๐
Iโm glad it did. ๐๐๐ป๐
This is lovely. Home: “Mid pleasures and palaces, though we may roam– Be it ever so humble, there’s no place like home.” my parents used to sing.
Home is where you hang your heart. Home…

Home gems
I love them all
So precious
Somewhere there is always a place in the sun, somewhere to call home
Even the journey,
Thatโs lovely
Iโm on my way home
