The Gift of Home

I remember when I was young , I was always looking forward in going home for so many reasons ... have to continue reading the latest novels of Harold Robbins or Danielle Steel ... or strum my guitar ... study my lessons ... whatever...

Then when I became a teenager , peer pressure lead me to go out of the house most of the time to just hang around with friends .  Then I graduated from college and ventured to the world of work.

Now that I am much older , I miss the feeling of home ... again to read the books that I bought at the bookstore , though not anymore novels , I have switch wave lengths . now more on the spiritual side and personal development... be with my family ( husband and children ) ... I like eating with my family around me , the more that I enjoy the food that I eat.

Home is where the heart is ... you feel secure and protected ... this is also the place where you weave your dreams ... most of my earlier dreams I have fulfilled ... my kids are college graduates and finding their own career path now...

I am still a part of a company , where I still use my core work on HR - training , manpower sourcing , counseling , career pathing , and other intervening tasks such as strategic planning , organizational development

After a day's work , you look forward to the serenity of your home ... where memories are always a welcome thought to ponder ... where you see your dreams coming to reality...where you can measure the achievement of your career by the things that you accumulated through the years...

My home has gathered a lot of material possessions ... memories... challenges ... things that need repairs now... some housemates are no longer there everyday and has moved to another home nearer work.. some  are even out of the country and has migrated to other countries ...some have change path and are now involve in local politics ... but it still has the same warmth , and loving energy that we enjoy since we transferred there in 1992... yes , we miss are former housemates ...

The desire to beautify , to fix , to improve it ...is still in my heart...my home is in a way a sign of my
accomplishment. I have renovated it a couple of times and has risen to a three story structure with a roof top to enjoy Mother nature ...

We have so many happy memories in our home... forever etched in our heart to ponder and share with others looking for peace in their hearts .

I even read that home can even be compared to heaven ... if there is joy and love then your home is like heaven here on Earth... I will continue to improve , beautify and create memories in my home...

Nothing beats a home like heaven here on earth... have a great life ... enjoy ...and be free
