The only time I feel at home is when I’m alone outdoors, on a mountaintop or in the desert. Occasionally, I may feel “comfortable” in my bedroom, but that is more a feeling of familiarity than a feeling of home.

The reason I feel at home while in solitude outdoors is because that is the only time when I can free my mind from obsessive worries and negative thoughts. I cannot do that anywhere else. Actually, it isn’t always that I am completely free of these thoughts while outside. I can think of negative and depressing things about my life at these times as well, but out there, those thoughts are robbed of their emotional impact and cannot harm me.

Home is not a physical place. Physical
things can be moved, lost, taken away.

Home is the place that makes you the
happiest and that is from within, and
those who support you and will be there
for you.

The Greatest Home is peace in your heart
when all physical things are gone, tooken
away, or lost!

A Poem wrote:


The snow may fall and crinkle upon your
feet. The solids become dust and particle
in time. The walkers will pass without sight
and the seer's will pass and observe without
sound.

Winter turns to Spring, and the the green,
reds and brown of Autum will pass. The
sky will cry it's final tears of changes gone
by. The sun will peak it's awareness that
home never changes, just what is below your
feet.

Spring bleed into Summer and the thoughts,
and feeling of the many footsteps will surround
you and start the dying process that is death.
The walkers will walk and not see. The seer's
will see the ground die, for Autumns blizzard.
laugh, play, celebrate this thing we call life, and
embrace the death of the sun to be.

Autumn will creep upon the dead leave of summer
and say no more, but I have always the key
to your hearts door and embrace my change
for I am home of death to silence, silence to
decay, and then to life as my home is always
the same, Thump!-Thump!, Thump!-Thump!.

My beating heart see's the change and I see my
way.

GhostHunter that's another excellent poem!

I spent time on streets and moving constantly
through teenage years. Home is where my heart
beats the gentlest. I am now stable in own home.
This is where I like to be the most.

I love the poem Ghosthunter. I hope to find home soon,
I don not think it is where I currently reside. I don't even
know where my heart is, but I am totally sure that my
home is where my heart is.

I have a thought in my head whenever I feel upset or
lost, and it is "I want to go home." Strangely, this thought
occurs even when I am home. I do not know where my
"home" is.

Does anyone else ever have this feeling?


Additionally, Ghosthunter, yet another beautiful poem
from you .


To all of you who enjoyed my poem, I say thankyou
and may peace be in your blessed hearts.

I don't know if I can ever feel at home anywhere. I like my computer, but I've never seen a house that is a computer. I don't like the word heart, I always think of Valentine's Day whenever I hear the word. So hopefully home isn't where the heart is. I'd rather deny mine the happiness of existing. :(

The obvous answer: The Home is in the Heart, just like most things: we see them as something physical, like ``it is there''... In truth, we do not know anything objective about anything. It's always impacted by our feelings. That's why.

My home is inside me. There is space and time with hills and trees surrounded by a thick wall made of stone. And sometimes I look through a window of my tower - which is me - to see the peoples live ther lifes.

Nowhere other than outside of existence.
