I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

Quote:I think of home as my grandparent's place, which is no longer in our family.
Quote:My dad created so much stress that I don't feel like home at my childhood home
Quote:I was just speaking to one of my professors about my House. It's a paid-for-House. It's not a Home. It's a shackle I'm now tied to. A ball and chain.
Quote:I suppose that changed once my children got to the age of leaving home and then home became where I am (my Dad died a while back) because we seem to gather at my house for those occasions.
Quote:I can honestly say that home to me has come to mean more than a place, it has come to mean people that I actually care about. Blair and the friends that I made in Alberta were home. BC isn't home for me anymore.
Quote:I never felt welcome at home, so I didn't think I had the sense of home, because I didn't have the feeling of belonging. But when I go back, the familiarity of the place itself puts me at ease in a way I don't find elsewhere, no matter how much I try to make the places I've been 'home'. So 'home' for me is a specific, familiar location. But I admit, it would feel empty and hollow without my siblings.

Quote:Originally posted by SIGNYM: Do we HAVE homes any more? Are there any places where we feel "at home"- connected to surroundings, neighbors, history, or family? Or are we residing in a series of apartments, or owning a series of real-estate purchases? Does it matter anymore? Or is home just an old-style construct, done away with by our inet friends and families?
