2 (365) Home- noun: any place of residence or refuge

Home is where you kick your shoes off in the same place you did yesterday and no one minds.  Where there is a chair that you sit in drinkng coffee while reading a good book.  One chair with one view.  The last house I lived in was terrible, no air, no heat, prone to flooding...but there was one spot in the back where I could sit next to the open screen door and think and read.  It was quiet.  I don't miss anything about that house except that one spot.

"...Sanctuary; a word which here means a small, safe place in a troubling world. Like an oasis in a vast desert or an island in a stormy sea..."
