It depends on our definition of HOME. If "home is where our heart is" that we can always choose to be home. For some people, who experienced trauma in a place hey called home, then perhaps they cannot go back. A5 #SpiritChat

This is quite a question. I've been in a new home since May of this year. A home is where your heart is. Home is the people you love. Home is the love you feel in your heart. So, as long as the environment is cozy and filled with love, I am at home. #spiritchat

A4 Yes. I love it when that happens. When that instant connection happens. When you feel like you have known someone all of your life. When someone hears and sees you, you feel at home with them. Or a room /home feels like you have been there before. It is magic! #spiritchat

A3 Home to me is a place where I am surrounded by trees and water. They are part of being at home for me. #Spiritchat

Q4. Ever wonder why... you meet with (or visit someone’s home) for seemingly the first time... and you instantly feel at home? #Spiritchat

Today’s #SpiritChat on “On Going Home... Again?” is inspired by a reminder at last week’s retreat... that we have kinship with all of life. Namaste. 🙏🏽

A1. The idea of going home again sounds great. I love the West Virginia mountains this time of year. Miles and miles of trees in full color~ #Spiritchat

I think that a sense of home is especially important to us when we need to feel safe and loved. 💞 A2 #SpiritChat

AjmaniK @ajmanik.bsky.social · 3h

Q2. Why is a sense, a feeling of ‘home’ important for us? Does this importance change over time? #Spiritchat

A1 It depends where home is or was. If looking to go back to a childhood home that has changed owners and been revamped, that home can only be revisited through memories. #SpiritChat

Let us begin. Q1. On going home… (again?) ~ how does this phrase make you feel in this moment...?
