Day 14 was actually yesterday...finally arrived home, home to the Miramichi. This is where I did most of my growing up and probably pick up where I left off when I visit. Home is always where you feel most comfortable, most familiar....the place where you can be your most "self". Anyone who has shared that feeling will know what I mean. Home for me is not an attachment to material things like a house or furniture...is is not substantive...it is a feeling..one of belonging or being a part of something greater. Usually that feeling is most prevalent when you are with family, the feeling of being part of something greater than just yourself....I think that is why we associate the "house" with being home.
My home is the Miramichi. That is where my family is, this is where I can be my true self, and this is where you will find the Miramichi River. This morning I woke up to sunshine and a beautiful view of that river.......home.
