This quote is very true in a way and I can’t help but reminisce on this old song when I see the quote.
The lyrics says [credit: lyricmode]:
Some people live in a house on the hill
And wish they were some place else
There’s nobody there
When the evening is still
Secrets with no one to tell
Some I have known have a ship where they sleep
With sounds of rocks on the coast
They sail over oceans five fathoms deep
But can’t find what they want the most
Even now when I’m alone
I’ve always known with you
I am home
Some live in towns
Cardboard shack on concrete
All bluster and bustling life
They search for the color they can never quite see
Cause it’s all white on white
Even now when I’m alone
I’ve always known with you
I am home
For me it’s a glance and the smile on your face the touch of your hands,
And an honest embrace
For where I lay it’s you I keep,
This changing world I fall asleep
With you all I know is I’m coming home,
Coming home

If you can’t leave because you know your heart will be broken if you do, that’s home…

After 21 years of trying to get away from the place I grew up in, I discovered that I always thought of the place I just left as home. That was true for the next 40 years. But I finally found home where I am.
Thanks for the quote and the thoughts.

For me, home is a myth. It’s something that is in my past and to search/copy/imitate past home is a waste of time. I believe that home is where I am now wherever I am. It’s a self-realization to be comfortable wherever I am.

Rightly said, Yinglan… Home is a state of mind! A house cannot always be a “home” and a “home” does not always be a “house”. 🙂
