Home

A house is not a home unless it contains food and fire for the mind as well as the body.

- Benjamin Franklin

A house is made of walls and beams;

A home is built with love and dreams.

- Anonymous

The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned.

- Maya Angelou

Home is our sanctuary, where we:

relax into being ourselves, play with our inner child, paint the walls green and pink, dig in the dirt, grow something, love somebody else, love ourselves even more, snuggle with a warm blanket on a Sunday afternoon, hang "go away" on the door whenever we want, clean and tidy often... or never, launch from and return to, are truly ourselves.
