Thought Bubble.


what is home really?
a pink building with a balcony full of plants.
a grey house that is situated between a white one and another grey one.
a cobbled pavement next to the bus stop...

..."home" is only a feeling.


"Would that I could gather your houses into my hand,
and like a sower scatter them in forest and meadow."
-Gibran.

"home is only a feeling" indeed. Beautiful thought .

You remind me of Milton's Satan, who described so subtly how heaven and hell were both a different tate of the mind.

And I love the quotation. My home in Kalikapur...I so feel the same way about it.

"home" is just a feeling. An in-quotes thing, kind of vivid. Not unexpected of you, though :)
