It’s always great to go home. Seeing my parents and grandparents and the time we get to just “hang out” never seems long enough. My parents have a nice huge yard with lots of gardens and wildlife.
Home is not where you live but where they understand you. ~ Christian Morgenstern
The family is a haven in a heartless world. ~ Christopher Lasch
Home is the one place in all this world where hearts are sure of each other. It is the place of confidence. It is the place where we tear off that mask of guarded and suspicious coldness which the world forces us to wear in self-defense, and where we pour out the unreserved communications of full and confiding hearts. It is the spot where expressions of tenderness gush out without any sensation of awkwardness and without any dread of ridicule. ~Frederick W. Robertson
When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses. ~ Joyce Brothers
Sometimes our hearts get tangled
And our souls a little off-kilter
Friends and family can set us right
And help guide us back to the light.
~Sera Christann
I found the quotes sprinkled within this post at The Quote Garden.
These are wonderful photos. I like that final paragraph, Lisa. That's a tribute to home that I can relate to.
ReplyDeleteYou are right where you should be and always remember that. Your wisdom will evolve/grow with time. Keep your spirit souring high. May your journey be a joyful one.
