I think Baldwin had it sort of right--home may be a condition we cannot revoke, but we can alter it. If this were not true, we would be prisoners of our past. I think our sense of home defines what we believe is essential about ourselves. I hope, for me, that has changed over the years. Home, for me, is not where I put down roots, but where I find family, love and comfort.
You do come up with the most interesting questions.
So true. I don't think it's an irrevocable condition but just a condition.
Thanks, @agmoore. Where is home for you is a question I've asked hundreds of people for an exhibition and the answers are always interesting. Family, love and comfort are definitely popular, recurring themes. I think it's because of the human nature to feel a sense of belonging.
