Yesterday we visited a place we'd never been before.
The strange thing was that it didn't feel new.
It felt familiar.
Not because I had been there before, but because something inside me recognized it. As if my soul had been homesick for a place it had never actually known.
It made me wonder if home isn't a place we find.
Maybe it's something that already exists inside us, waiting for certain landscapes, certain light, certain quiet moments to wake it up.
If that's true, I wonder...
Can we learn to call that feeling back wherever we are?
I don't know yet.
For now, it's enough to know that the feeling exists.
And to pay attention when it returns.
Questions I'm Still Carrying
- What places make you feel instantly at home?
- Is that feeling connected to the place itself, or to something it awakens inside you?
- What small moments in your everyday life bring that same feeling back?
