Is it a Home if it's just you?
If home is where the heart is, but your heart is longing to live with others, then are you truly at home if you live alone?
What makes a home a Home instead of just a place to live?
If it's community and family and someone to care for, what happens when you're by yourself?
And why is it called being homesick - when you're not sick from home but longing for it (sick with longing, perhaps?) - carsick doesn't mean you're longing to be in your car.
Can you be homesick for a family you don't even have yet?
For a husband and children that you merely hope are in your future.
And what if they're not...
Will you ever feel at Home?
Home is where your heart is... and sometimes that may not be where you are sleeping tonight... but give it time... new jeans are usually pretty stiff the first few times you wear them.
