Home Is A Feeling Not A Building

After a long day at work, I really crave to go home, why is that? It's not about the place where the house is situated, its not about how comfy my bed is, neither is it about how beautiful and majestic the house is. Many living in a castle still pray to leave, even a saying goes as a king doesn't sleep with both eyes closed. As much as we really want to go for best of things, its best we pick where we can find peace. Home is where we get peace. Home is a feeling, house is the building, and home is the feeling we get when our heart accepts the place, or the person. Oh yes, a person too can serve as home.

I remember back then in my university days, the stress was so much, we all had a lot to put in and we were all getting slimmer. Some got fatter but those were people from other departments. Mine derived joy from stressing its student. So we all desired the end of examination, so we can run home, at least I felt like everyone would run home after the examination so that they could relax and allow that peace to revive them again. But one guy would never go home, yes he had a house, a big house infact but would never return there, not even for a Christmas holiday, at last he would visit someone else maybe a cousin or friends family, he said he does go home but always end up leaving sooner than expected.

We needed no explanation to let us know there was trouble at home, trouble that has gradually sown the seed of damages, now the seeds have grown thereby eating up all the homely feelings and leaving them with a house to stay. A place where one doesn't have joy and peace cannot be likened to a home. Comfort is not so much of a prerequisite, as one who has once stayed in a hell of a castle, wouldn't mind a heaven in a cave. It doesn't matter where it is or how it is, what matters is that we need a place of joy and peace, a place to call home. A place that can speak out to our consciousness, saying you're safe now, you're home now so you're safe.

Where do you run to when you want to clear your head or your thoughts. With whom do you see and feel safest. Where do you see your subconsciousness running to whenever the times are tough, it's a question we dont really need to answer, we know it for ourselves. It's not a place only, someone else also can serve am home. For most of us our mothers did a great job serving as a home to us. Oh how quick we are to sleep when she's around, cause we feel safe. We know she has nothing but love and peace to offer to us, we too aren't shy to deny it therefore we keep running down.

It makes no sense at all to return to a place where we dont feel welcome, a place where we dont feel safe, it's no way good for the mind to be at his best. Although there are cases where we need to bear for a little while longer cause there is a plan or its just a short term. However in cases where it's been registered in our minds that we would be staying a long time over here and we still don't feel the peace, love, safety and joy as we should, then there are issues we need to address. Issues that might need us questioning those around us, and how our relationship might be going at the moment.

It's not shocking anymore that some husbands don't feel at home anymore, likewise some wives don't feel the urge to go home anymore. All this are owing to the fact that home isn't about a place you can lay your head, its more of a place your heart can lay its head. The heart can really beat less faster in a less tense environment. Enough happens on the day already, so much that we just hope to cut it off and rest, but in situations when we know the place we are heading for is nothing short of more trouble, quarrels and fights, or likely hate, I bet the heart craves no more to going back to that sort of place.

Fix that home, it's no all situations of quarrels and fight that warrants us leaving our home totally. No, we can never deceive ourselves and how we feel deep down. So many times we fight with the person or people we have at home and it gets so heated like this guys are never coming back together, but nah... their hearts could still feel like there is where I want to be. It could be a war zone currently but still there is where I want to rest, I still feel more peace with her or with him or with them more than anywhere else and this is fine. So sometimes we just need to fix things at home, everyone fights but if there is where you heart really wants, then you'd better start setting your home in order.

Don't ever for one day feel like it's too spooky to pray, especially for your home. If the home is not in order then it could affect everything else. Work could be affected, communication with others can be affected, more like you'll see that you no more are in your right frame of mind. So if there is any way to get someone frustrated easily, it'll most likely be to destroy his home, probably after that, everything else might self destruct themselves, cause the mind is not at peace anymore and it doesn't have a place of joy anymore. Many why some result in alcoholism, but how long and how far can that repair. The best is to pray, prayer can prevent a lot, even matters we don't see or know. Pray for your home too, cause it matters a great deal to us as humans.

An awesome time it is writing to you all. Thanks for Reading. Home is where I write, cause home is my place of rest and full sanity. Home is important to all. Much love guys. Please do keep liking, subscribe and comment. Stay loved.

Loving this "Home is where we get peace.". So true. Now I found myself drenched in your articles. The call/command is really simple " start setting your home in order.", is something everyone is looking forward. We need to settle our home, else no one wants to live in it. Good read, thank u.

Home sweet home. For sure its a place where one finds comfort, solace, warmth, etc. Infact it's a place where one can pour out their anger and frustration without fearing any one. Cos it's our home and our people. Nice topic.

The joy of getting home at the end of every semester or section is such an untold one. When one places one's suffering while in school and tries to equate it with the enjoyment at home, you will for sure agree to the fact that there's just nothing like home. I also had the same feeling as did you when I was in the varsity before my graduation period

Hahahaha, that's right, we all loved it heading home, in fact most of us resume so late, we couldn't believe it was resumption time already. Home is peace, home is love, home is where we know we are safe.

A home can be never a home without those people you cry your shoulders on and lean on in times of your sorrows. A home can be someone who you can count on in times of your troubles. A real home defines happiness and acceptance.

A home is somewhere or someone you're comfortable with. It's like even if you're already at the top, you will always look back for home. It's like looking for comfort, love and care.

Thanks right, it can't be compared with any level of material acquisition, home humbles us in a way we like it. We know we can rest.
