Home: September 16

Every Tuesday and Friday for the rest of September, I’ll be collecting posts on the topic of home. Do you have a post I should include? Leave the link in the comments here or email it to me. Poems, photos, lists, stories, you-name-it—it’s all welcome.

At Hiraeth, Kim has Home: An Eternal Dwelling Place and an Indwelling Presence.

You’ll find a hymn about the home at Dorothy’s Field Stone Cottage.

And from Ellen, a song about where our home really is at The Happy Wonderer.

I posted a poem about losing one home and finding the true one from Puritan poet Anne Bradstreet.

In the comments, Judy tells a touching story.

A very young First Nations boy in the Arctic, in response to my question, Where do you live? said, “My Mom is my home.” I’ve never forgotten his statement.

Hi Rebecca!

I came to visit on Kim's recommendation. I'm glad I did.

I just did a post on Home, as this month marks the fourth anniversary in our home. Perhaps you'd like to share it. Thank you very much for hosting this!
