4/9/2007 Home sweet homeHome sweet home - well, Im not sure what that means anymore. They say home is where the heart is, where the cat is or even where the cheque-book is. But for me, I have 2 homes now. Upon going back to NZ for the first and possibly only time in 3 years, I initially felt like a foreigner. But of course I gradually got use to the sights, sounds and smells that brought back memories of my child-hood. Although my parents still live in the same town I have always called home, so much has changed. The land around our house is being developed - "progess" is taking hold and taking with it my fond feelings for my town Warkworth. Luckily the memories cant be taken from me.
I went for a 3 week stint, sneakily arriving a week before I told my mother and without informing my father (the bday boy) at all. Obviously I spent quite a bit of the time with my parents.. but I also saw various friends around Warkworth, Auckland and even travelling down to Wellington (NZ`a capital).
Anyway, at the end of the day, Ive realised that one definition of home is where your parents are.. a place I am always welcome and loved.. and for that to be in such a beautiful country, I am truely lucky!!
