6.17.09

over the last quarter, i have done some thinking about what the word home means...the literal definition of the word 'home' is "one's place of residence" or "a familiar or usual setting."

i have found that home means something different. it is not about being somewhere physically, it is about where i am mentally and emotionally. here is why i know this - i can be in my house, but if no one is in it, it does not feel like home. my house feels like a home when my family is present, especially my mom. i also realize that i feel at home whenever i am around certain people. i love my family but i feel like santa clara is becoming just as much of a home because of the people that i surround myself with while i am there.

i think 'home' can be defined as wherever i am the most comfortable being me 100% of the time.
