Claraā€™s life had been a nightmare: miserable childhood, horrible relationships, and more. After spending a couple of days with me, her face transformed. Toward the end of our time together, she was struggling to describe how she felt and said, ā€œI, I . . .ā€

Anticipating how she might want to finish that sentence, I offered, ā€œYouā€™re HOME.ā€

A look of recognition and then astonishment crossed her face, and she wept. ā€œHome,ā€ she finally said. ā€œYes, Iā€™m home.ā€

Home is not a matter of blood or adoption or geography. Itā€™s not a building. Home is where we feel loved. Itā€™s really that simple. As children, we all expectedā€”unconsciously, of courseā€”to be born into a home. Often we were told we were home. But very few of us experienced unconditional love in the place called ā€œhome.ā€ So we felt lost and even betrayed. We suffered Post-Childhood Stress Disorder because of the trauma we suffered in the place called ā€œhome.ā€

But regardless of how we were raised, or how much pain weā€™ve experienced, we can find the Real Love we need. We can find home, and we can carry it with usā€”wherever we go. All our lives weā€™ve run FROM pain, but with a genuine home, we finally have a place to run TO. Finally, we can always go home. We can LIVE home. We can BE home. And that is real living.
