Maybe I'm weird for calling both "home". I'm sure most everybody else here only has one "home", and it's not here. But for me, both are home. So is it weird going "home" twice in a week? Perhaps...
But, when you really think about what "home" really is, it's not weird at all. They say "home is where the heart is", and I agree...but it's even more than that. Home is wherever I love. and I definitely love here.
In Pittsburgh, I have my family and my high school friends, all of whom I love deeply...
...but here in Loretto, I have my SFU friends, whom I love deeply as well
THAT is how both have become my home. So, if you read this and are a part of my "Pittsburgh family", or my "SFU family".....you're the reason I always feel at home.
It's not that I'm happy anywhere (though I certainly try), but it's that both of my homes give me things I can't get anywhere else in the world.
A Special Note:
You. I hope you realize this is directed towards you (hint: revelation). Anyway, whether you read this or not I just wanted to say thanks. Thanks for wanting to "go deeper" into our faith and pull me with you. Thank you for giving me a safe environment to grow, and the love and care that really proves that I'm home. I hope that I can return the favor. There's much more I want to say to you...but that can be for one of those "deep talks" you keep talking about.
