Gratitude and Home

Gratitude reminds us that no person is completely self-created. Home integrates that recognition without dissolving the self.

Gratitude reminds us that no person is completely self-created.

We have been carried by people, places, ecosystems, chance, history and circumstances we did not manufacture.

Home integrates that recognition without dissolving the self.

I belong to myself.

And I belong within relationships larger than myself.

That combination offers a deeper form of stability than either isolated independence or complete dependence can provide.
