The Sense of Home

Home is where one starts.  As we grow older the world becomes stranger,
the pattern more complicated  . . .

We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
                                                            - T.S. Eliot

The sense of home revolves around experiences and emotions.  Nostalgia comes from the latin, "nostos algos,"  the agony to return home.  The ideal of home often becomes a place to run away from when the time comes.  Individuals want to run back sometimes as well.

What does home represent?

 - where one resides: a shelter, house, castle, tent
 - one's native land
-  another human being or group
-  a place in the mind
