Everyone has so much respect for each other, that you’re never interrupted when you need to be left alone, and they’re still friendly, etc., when you need contact. Understanding and respect, everywhere on the planet; this is home.
Hey, you said imagine the ideal, right?

I don’t get what you mean by “…specifically, your virtual home.”

I think the biggest thing is comfort. As in the space being comfortable, as in being comforted, as in being able to provide comfort.

Oh, and I love Damien’s answer. Absolutely.

Home is a place where people encourage me to have fun speeding down steep hills and provide me with a safety bar in case I lose control. Other times it's a dull place but I always feel as if I BELONG. That is a key word for home to me. Damien's last blog post..Road Stop Iced Tea vs. Grocery Store

Isabella,
I have just discovered your blog and will read more with interest. But I would love to answer your question. My ideal home would be similar to the perception of the one I grew up in. It was warm, tidy, pretty, happy, and fun. There were interesting people coming and going. Mealtimes were an event of good food and interesting conversation. I felt loved, appreciated, safe, and encouraged. It was a nurturing ground for the artist and writer in me. My parents’ hurts and ‘issues’ were hidden from me and so I was able to believe that it was a wonderful world!
Wendy Love

Home? Ideally, to me, it is a peaceful place. A refuge but not somewhere you go to refuse the world.

I reckon home should reflects the heart’s capacity. And virtually… well, there is freedom within the boundaries of that potential, no?

Distance is emptied out and in its place is the fire of imagination that we share, in good company, with our stories. Stories like you’ve told here, isabella. Stories that connect and return us to a path we may not have otherwise recognised though it travels through out center.

It seems a bit like holding a flower in a stiff wind… Not too loose, not too tight as the Zen dudes say.
