I left my hometown when I was 17 looking for “home” that little place of warmth where I was embedded in the seams of the atmosphere
But I would be remiss not to mention the holidays, birthdays, Sunday dinners and play dates with my family
Those experiences aided in shaping me into who I am
Those days seem so far removed because I am no longer a child and my appetite for life quickly outgrew the limitations of home
I hoped for home to be a place where kindred spirits would greet me with welcoming love and security
A place where ideas would form into limitless sky's where we could build anything we dreamed
Lately I’ve been questioning what exactly does home mean
I used to think home consisted of people and places
And memories could only be created with those who were supposed to love you but what do you do when role models fall and people fail to reach expectations, then where is home?
Home for me is a place where I can see myself clearly
Home is the calling that comes asking me to become the light that was implanted within my spirit
Home are the dreams I have of building a place where I can not be washed out, replaced or forgotten
Home is the becoming
Home is the strength inside of me
I carry home within me
