Home will never be a place like we drew in art class,
It will usually never have mountains behind it, a white fence around it and a rainbow above it...
Sometimes it may not even have a door or roof,
For sometimes home is a person, sometimes it's a warm meal served with love and sometimes it just a quiet place which makes you feel at ease.
Home isn't and should never be a place you need to be a certain way or not be a certain way, it's a place where you can just be...
As a home is not a house, just like love is not a set of rules, family isn't by blood and warmth isn't something that surrounds fireplaces in the biggest of mansions...
So go where the heart is warmed, not by the food or the gifts or the lack of them - but warmed genuinely by the care, the concern and the feeling of belonging - not a fleeting one- but one that remains long after you've left it behind.
For sometimes life is spent in not acknowledging truths we've known and that in short is called a life wasted :) So while you invest in a house don't forget to build homes along the way for those are the only ones that truly protect you from inclement weather :)
