Thank You for Viewing
探求 (Tankyu) – searching, seeking
After exploring some of the photos, stories and documents, please reflect on the following:
How do you create a feeling of “home” for yourself/your family?
How have others made you or your family feel at home?
What Others Have Said
-
I don’t feel at home until I can bake and cook in a kitchen wherever I am.
-
A place in the community – job, friends, church, school.
-
Freedom to explore miles from home, trust in strangers, variety of friendships
-
I feel at home when I am with my wife having friends over or simply the events of the day. I doubt there is anything like going to bed with or waking up next to one’s partner. That is home.
Home
The aroma of fresh cookies filled our cosy yellow home
With Magnificent Chocolate Chips so much like Mom used to make,
that love was in the air
Vases adorned the table with roses and white lillies
Fresh and clean, vivid as only the present can be
Music wafted in from every corner
Lush piano bar music that dripped with sultry sounds
hinting of quieter times and hidden memories
Flickering at the hearth a warm and inviting fire,
blazing enough to warm the soul and toes
In that glow, the first kiss through the door was heaven on earth,
a blessing and a recompense for everything
that had ever come before or could possibly transpire
until the end of days
