WHAT IS HOME?

Let’s explore the Home through the lens of philosophy.

Maya Angelou: “The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned.”

Toni Morrison: “Perhaps home is not a place but simply an irrevocable condition.”

Rumi: “Be like a tree and let the dead leaves drop. Home is where new roots can grow.”

Mother Teresa: “Love begins at home, and it is not how much we do, but how much love we put in that action.”

Barack Obama: “The best way to not feel hopeless is to get up and do something. That’s how we build a home within ourselves.”

J.R.R. Tolkien: “The greatest adventure is finding your way home.”

George Bernard Shaw: “Home is not a place, it’s a state of mind.”

Walt Whitman: “A home should be filled with love, laughter, and the echoes of shared memories.”

Aristotle: “The home is the first school of virtue, where character is shaped.”

💭 Me: Home is more than walls and a roof—it’s the people, the memories, the feeling of belonging. It can be a childhood house, a distant land, or even a moment in time that lingers in our hearts. Sometimes, home is not where we come from, but where we find ourselves.
